Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Place the ham in a roasting pan or 9X13 baking dish, cut side down.
- In a saucepan, combine the apricot preserves, dijon mustard, brown sugar, cinnamon, and cloves. Whisk ingredients together and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once it comes to a boil, remove it from heat.
- Brush 1/2 of the glaze over the ham. Make sure the glaze gets between the slices.
- Cover the pan tightly with foil so the ham doesn't dry out. Bake for 90 minutes or per the package instructions.
- Remove the ham from the oven and brush the remaining glaze on top. Save a little for serving if you like. Increase the oven temperature to 425°F. Return the ham to the oven uncovered. Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the ham gets a nice brown outer layer.
- Transfer the ham to a serving platter. Let the ham rest and slightly cool for 15 minutes before serving. Slice and serve with additional glaze if you saved some.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).
- Place the ham cut side down onto a sheet of aluminum foil. I like to put the shiny side up. Mix together the brown sugar, apricot jam and mustard powder in a small bowl. Brush onto the ham using a pastry or barbeque brush. Reserve any leftover glaze. Enclose the foil around the ham and place on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Roast for 2 hours in the preheated oven, or if your ham is a different size, figure 14 minutes per pound. Apply the remaining glaze 20 minutes before the ham is done.

Tips:
- Choose the right ham: A bone-in ham will give you more flavor, but it will also take longer to cook. If you're short on time, you can use a boneless ham.
- Score the ham: This will help the glaze penetrate the meat and give you a more flavorful ham.
- Make the glaze ahead of time: This will give the flavors time to meld and develop.
- Baste the ham regularly: This will help keep the ham moist and prevent it from drying out.
- Let the ham rest before carving: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat and give you a more tender ham.
Conclusion:
Slow cooker ham with apricot dijon glaze is an easy and delicious way to feed a crowd. The ham is cooked until it is fall-off-the-bone tender and the glaze is sweet and tangy. This dish is perfect for any occasion, from a family dinner to a holiday feast. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and memorable meal that everyone will love.
