Notes

If you want to add a little extra flavor to your ham, you can score the top of the ham before placing it in the slow cooker. Then, rub the ham with your favorite spices, such as brown sugar, garlic powder, and onion powder.
If you're using a bone-in ham, you may need to cook it for a little longer. To check if the ham is done, insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the ham. The ham is done when the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
If you don't have a slow cooker, you can cook the ham and vegetables in the oven. To do this, place the ham in a roasting pan and add the potatoes, carrots, and onion. Cover with aluminum foil (or add all ingredients to an oven roasting bag). Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 1½-2 hours, or until the ham is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
