Place the ham into your slow cooker. Add ½ cup or more of water to cover the bottom of the cooker. Cover and cook on low for 5-8 hours, until ham is heated through.  An 8-9 pound ham will take approximately 5 hours in an average slow cooker.

Pineapple Chutney

Ingredients:
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 medium onion, diced

2 tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled and minced
½ teaspoon salt

½ cup white rum

1 fresh pineapple, peeled, cored and diced into ½ inch pieces

½ cup fresh lime juice

½ cup brown sugar

½ teaspoon ground allspice

1 ½ teaspoons chopped fresh thyme

Pinch of crushed red pepper

Directions:
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat.  Saute onion until for 2-3 minutes, or until slightly soft.  Add ginger and salt. Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly.

Add rum to pan; cook 30 seconds or until most of the liquid has evaporated. Stir in pineapple, lime juice, sugar and spices; bring to a boil. Cook 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pineapple is tender and liquid has thickened up to an almost “jammy” consistency. Remove from heat; cool slightly before serving.

The chutney can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 3 days. Reheat slightly before serving, if desired.
