I tried this recipe for Easter yesterday, using about 5 lb. of pre-cooked ham. It took only 22 minutes of pressure cooking and produced moist slices of ham that quickly disappeared from the serving plate. What I especially liked was that I could make the glaze from items I had on hand. Many thanks! This will be my go-to ham recipe from now on.
Your videos are great! You don't rush through everything and ignore the details. Everything is covered and it makes following your recipes so much easier! Thank you!
Tried this today for Christmas lunch - it was delicious. The glaze toned down some of the saltiness of the ham, which we all liked. Thanks again, Kristen and blessings of the season to you and your family.
I appreciate your helpful amazing videos, I wasn’t sure how to cook a ham when the turkey in the oven. Not having family wait for the ham afterwards. I never thought about using the instapot. Thank you so much for your videos and your help, making Thanksgiving great!
Just made this and it was AMAZING! The only thing i did different is double the slurry to make the glaze thicker! Wasn't sure how long it would take to natural release. I used 4.85 pound sliced, boneless ham and the natural release took 10 min.
I just started cooking with the Instant Pot this week and I'm so happy with it. I've been watching a lot of recipe videos and you seem to be the only one consistently explaining WHY we should not quick release all of the time. I'll be saving this ham recipe for Christmas and I'll try your chicken stock recipe when I get more advanced. Thank you!
the natural pressure release works better for some people depending on what they are cooking i dont do a natural pressure release as i cook my food so it can be released right away. its really up to you as i have not come across a recipe that requires you to do a natural release as its just a preference in time in cooking.
@@Lickymaballs Hi Ricky! You are right, most recipes state to do a quick release. The problem with that is that you can have dried out, tough meat, and change texture of beans, etc. It is up to you, I just want people to be aware it does impact results. :)
Can’t wait to try this. Thanks so much for all of your great recipes. btw, your IP hard boiled eggs: Perrrfect! And just like u said they peel effortlessly. Keep up the great content.
I tried this for last night’s dinner! Excellent results. I made my own glaze separately. The only thing I did differently was use pineapple rings and a few maraschino cherries on the ham inside of the Instant pot (my kids think all ham comes this way so I didn’t break with tradition there 😂) but it turned out FANTASTIC. Thank you for sharing this
The foil helps to trap the glaze around the ham. However, if not using the foil, I would recommend cooking the ham without the trivet as well. Pour 2 cups of pineapple juice into the bottom of the inner pot and then place the ham in the instant pot. Prepare the glaze as directed and VERY carefully pour into over top of the ham, trying to not let the honey hit the bottom of the inner pot (which can cause a burn notice). Cook for 2 minutes per pound with a 15-minute release. Enjoy!
Just tried it for the 1st time i was hopeful for the result and it was delicious i cutted it with the fork i cooked it for 14 minutes and was perfect thanks ! /Je viens d'essayé pour la première fois et c'est une réussite j'étais sceptique mais vraiment tendre j'ai cuit pendant 14 minutes ça ce découpait à la fourchette ! Merci !
You’re my go to for instant pot recipes!! I was so scared to try it when I bought it & then I did & burnt the meat, messed up big😂 Now instant pot is my go to for everything!! Do you have a cook book?!?
I love you and I love your kitchen I'm going to do my kitchen like yours I love the backsplash anyway your hand recipes better than another one I looked at and I'm going to do some of the Hamlet clothes and stuff and then I'm doing it with the pineapple but you are fantastic thank you so much the explanation of the quick release or slow-release really matters a lot mine isn't done yet but I'm sure it's going to be delicious love your videos keep it going honey
Really a great video... You family is so lucky to have you, if nothing more, for your cooking, LOL... I have a feeling my next ham will be delicious. And with those waffles I showed you, I can have a waffle and cold ham sandwich with the left overs. Thanks Kristan..... Thumbs up!
I just made this bone in unsliced ham. After following the directions and 34 minutes later, the tender juicy ham is delicious, the fat rendered nicely. Thank you so much. 👍😋💖
Kristin, this sounds AMAZING; I'm going to try it this weekend! Without doubt, it will be AMAZING and I'll spring it on my family for Christmas (or Thanksgiving)!! Oh, by the way, do you have roasted chicken or roasted turkey recipes in your archieve? I haven't checked, yet. If you do, I know they'll be fantastic. Y'all Be Safe!
I hope you love the ham Raymond! Here is my recipe for a Whole Instant Pot Chicken: amindfullmom.com/how-to-make-a-whole-chicken-in-the-instant-pot/ or in the oven: amindfullmom.com/oven-roasted-rotisserie-chicken/ And for turkey: amindfullmom.com/instant-pot-turkey-breast/ and amindfullmom.com/brining-a-turkey/ (there are directions for roasting the turkey as well!) You be safe as well!
Hi Terese. For a natural pressure release, do nothing. The pin will float down and your instant pot lid will unlock. Or after 15 minutes you can flip the knob.
@@AMindFullMom Thank you for explaining for me I got up at 5 o’clock and started cooking merry Christmas to you and your family and may you have a blessed new year
We cooked an 12 lb bone in spiral ham using a trivet but no foil. We used a cup and half of water and the brown sugar pineapple mix. Other videos said to cook on high for no more than 4 minutes so we did that. The ham was very dry. Not sure what we did wrong. Any thoughts?
Does it matter if there’s a bone in it? You did one with out a bone. And I have a 9 pound so 9×2 is 18+10 to 28 minutes plus natural release? Assuming I did the foil.
For ham, I really suggest thawing first to help the ham cook evenly. Frozen hams can tend to overcook on on the outside before they are warmed through in the center.
Hello! My vent knob doesn’t have a flip on it and I feel like it’s not sealed correctly. Should my steal button be up or down while cooking? I’m new to this
It can feel loose, but the steel button should float to the top when pressure is reached for cooking and then float down to release pressure. This may help: ua-cam.com/video/qwnhnrZ4r6o/v-deo.html
🐖 I always put spiral ham in oven with lots of carrots and some onion. I will bake till carrots were tender and darkened. It didn't come out like i have hoped. I bought myself the 6 qt ultra on Black Friday. Haven't really done too much with it besides eggs. The ham and carrots are now two days old in the fridge. Ham was dry, carrots were still kinda crisp. I cut the ham into 5 chunks and along with the carrots into the pot it went with one cup of water. Not knowing what to do I made a decision to pressure on high for 20 minutes. After a bit on natural release I released it all the way. When i opened the lid it seems as if it had more water than that one cup. I tasted a carrot then a piece of ham and a sip of the juice. For real I was blown away. I actually said out loud oh my God. ..I over ate, couldn't stop sipping on the juice.. it was absolutely delicious. I decided to see if anybody else thought of this, I think I was hoping that I discovered something new.. But no, im just slow. But this will be how I'll be doing it for now on.
Hi Erie! I personally don't recommend cooking ham from frozen, as the results are very uneven. BUT, in a bind, cook for 5 minutes per pound plus 10 minutes for the foil. Hope that helps!
Also, can you use orange juice instead of pineapple juice if adding ham directly to pressure cooker and then add the brown sugar and maple syrup to saute?
Hi Samantha. Canned ham is already pretty soft, so the extra moisture from the Instant Pot may not be ideal for cooking it. I haven't tried though, so it may work great. Sorry I am not more help. But I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
I dont know what I did wrong, but my four pound ham didn't cook properly. I did everything to step, but it was 165 in some spots and freezing cold other spots.
I would be sure your inner pot is clean and dried well. Then unplug the until and plug back in and try again. If there is moisture on the outside of inner pot, this could be causing it to happen.
I used another youtube video for a spiral sliced ham with a somewhat similar glaze today. The recipe called for 4 minutes total cooking time (not per pound) and my ham was 6 pounds. It did not call for wrapping in foil. It was really dry and not very flavorful. So...I’d love to try this, but an even longer cooking time scares me. I do love your recipes, though, and your Thanksgiving IP turkey did turn out great. Gonna trust you on the ham, too😃
Well, this would actually be less cooking time. Your recipe called for 24 minutes. This would be 12 minutes + 10 for foil which is 22 minutes (and only 12 minutes if no foil) That may make a difference. And be sure to do natural pressure releae.
@@lynettestrickland1688 Hmm, that seems so odd it would dry out your ham (or even fully warm it up) in just 4 minutes. Was it a Honey Baked Ham? Those don't need reheating at all?
Mine not only dried out, it was over cooked and dry. I think it would have been better if I would have quick released. I’ve done quick release with other meats and they were not tough.
A Mind Full Mom It was delicious and the ham was amazing. This was the first time I’ve cooked for my family so it was intimidating but your video was clear and step by step. Everything a nok chef could ask for! Thank you again
I don't know if my Instant Pot has a higher temp or what, but I had a 6# ham, wrapped in foil, so I cooked for 22 min....6x2 = 12 min + 10 min = 22 min. (Boneless) NR Did I do my math right? It came out soooo dry with the edges almost burnt. :( I just cut that part off to use for scraps later. I salvaged it in ham & cheese sliders and some sliced from the center. Very disappointing, so I will try again and just look at how long others cook theirs. Maybe my IP is just off.....or watching the video again, while typing, maybe I didn't "secure" the foil tight enough. I'm sure this fail was user error, so not giving up. :)
Hi Debbie! I hate that this came out dry for you. A few things--was your ham very thinly sliced or did you use a Honey Baked Ham? (those should be served at room temperature as the company has already re-heated and glazed) Did you use thin foil and did you wrap well? The ends should not get brown or dried out if well wrapped. When doing again, I would not add the 10 minutes. And for the record--some pots DO run a bit hotter and some run a bit lower in temp--just like ovens vary.
@@AMindFullMom Thank you so much for taking the time to reply. It wasn't thin or a Honey Baked "but" I didn't use heavy duty foil nor did I wrap it up tightly. I will try it again, I'm determined. I was running late and didn't take the time to watch your video again, so clearly I forgot some important details. I'm sure the next time will be successful. Thank you again for replying! :)
@@debbie1483 There are a million things to do around the holidays, it is easy to rush and miss a few details. I think you will find that sealing the ham well and decreasing the cook time if using thinner foil will help. But happy to answer questions anytime! And enjoy your week!
I followed the directions from the video. My ham only needed 18 minutes. It turned out to be tough and dry. I was very disappointed how it turned out. Even with pouring the pineapple juice, honey, & brown sugar through the slices it was dry.
@@AMindFullMom yes I did cover the ham with foil . This is not the first time this happened to me. I used an extra piece of foil on the top to make sure it was totally covered. I was expecting tender juicy slices of ham not dry tough slices that I had trouble eating.
Don't know how I lived without this for so long! I make dog food for 2 of our dogs ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxG-7WiT7ocumjytOpHDFt632PL0pxXRAg (we have 5!) and it is so much quicker in this. Love having the inner pot stainless so I can use my immersion blender right in it without worrying about scratching. It makes potatoes great and fast! Still working on the vegetables, first time came out great, second time I did different ones and they were a little too mushy. Just need to adjust the time. I highly recommend this pot!!!
Hi Beverly, how much liquid did you add and did your instant pot seem to struggle to come to pressure? It should not have dried out in that time unless it struggled to seal or you added too much liquid.
My ham came out dry. I think 18 mins was to long. Another lady said she cooked hers for four minutes that’s probably what I should’ve done now I’m throwing away a ham with the prices of meat right now, I’m not too happy about it
I've been a UA-cam fanatic for years now, and can honestly say that no one can make a better tutorial than this woman.

How do you like the pressure release naturally do you just flipped us the pressure knob?
Hi Terese. For a natural pressure release, do nothing. The pin will float down and your instant pot lid will unlock. Or after 15 minutes you can flip the knob.

Did you do a quick release of pressure? That could be issues. But honestly, I feel the foil is key.
Does it matter if there’s a bone in it? You did one with out a bone. And I have a 9 pound so 9×2 is 18+10 to 28 minutes plus natural release? Assuming I did the foil.
That would be correct and the timing will work with or without a bone. Enjoy!
What time should I put if my ham is frozen? Or can I cook it is? frozen
For ham, I really suggest thawing first to help the ham cook evenly. Frozen hams can tend to overcook on on the outside before they are warmed through in the center.
How long do we let it naturally release?
At least 15 minutes :) Enjoy!

How much time if you slow cooked a smoked spiral ham with a bone in it.5-6 lbs
About on average how long will natural release take
Plan for 15 minutes :)
@@AMindFullMom thank you so much
Can you do it with a crock pot?
Absolutely! I would cook right in the glaze (no need for foil). Cook on low for 3-4 hours depending on the size of your ham.
Not sure about the foil though
It helps to keep the ham "basting" in the glaze.

Yes, just be sure to wrap in foil. The coke and brown sugar would burn otherwise.

Hi Samantha. Canned ham is already pretty soft, so the extra moisture from the Instant Pot may not be ideal for cooking it. I haven't tried though, so it may work great. Sorry I am not more help. But I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Great idea, but still needs a broiler, to caramelize the glaze.
You can certainly do that!

It will all depend on the timing of how long you cook something, just like the oven.
130C = 266F
Maybe include the amount of ingredients for the pineapple juice, brown sugar and honey.
It's in the description.

Thank you! I didn’t think to look there.
@@MrMurder0321 No worries! :) I hope you had a fabulous Thanksgiving

It was delicious and the ham was amazing. This was the first time I’ve cooked for my family so it was intimidating but your video was clear and step by step. Everything a nok chef could ask for! Thank you again
@@MrMurder0321 I am so happy! Thank you for sharing with me you enjoyed!
I don't know if my Instant Pot has a higher temp or what, but I had a 6# ham, wrapped in foil, so I cooked for 22 min....6x2 = 12 min + 10 min = 22 min. (Boneless) NR Did I do my math right? It came out soooo dry with the edges almost burnt. :( I just cut that part off to use for scraps later. I salvaged it in ham & cheese sliders and some sliced from the center. Very disappointing, so I will try again and just look at how long others cook theirs. Maybe my IP is just off.....or watching the video again, while typing, maybe I didn't "secure" the foil tight enough. I'm sure this fail was user error, so not giving up. :)
Hi Debbie! I hate that this came out dry for you. A few things--was your ham very thinly sliced or did you use a Honey Baked Ham? (those should be served at room temperature as the company has already re-heated and glazed) Did you use thin foil and did you wrap well? The ends should not get brown or dried out if well wrapped. When doing again, I would not add the 10 minutes. And for the record--some pots DO run a bit hotter and some run a bit lower in temp--just like ovens vary.
@@AMindFullMom Thank you so much for taking the time to reply. It wasn't thin or a Honey Baked "but" I didn't use heavy duty foil nor did I wrap it up tightly. I will try it again, I'm determined. I was running late and didn't take the time to watch your video again, so clearly I forgot some important details. I'm sure the next time will be successful. Thank you again for replying! :)
@@debbie1483 There are a million things to do around the holidays, it is easy to rush and miss a few details. I think you will find that sealing the ham well and decreasing the cook time if using thinner foil will help. But happy to answer questions anytime! And enjoy your week!
I followed the directions from the video. My ham only needed 18 minutes. It turned out to be tough and dry. I was very disappointed how it turned out. Even with pouring the pineapple juice, honey, & brown sugar through the slices it was dry.
I hate hearing this. Did you wrap in foil?
@@AMindFullMom yes I did cover the ham with foil . This is not the first time this happened to me. I used an extra piece of foil on the top to make sure it was totally covered. I was expecting tender juicy slices of ham not dry tough slices that I had trouble eating.
I’ve tried this twice with the same results… over cooked. 2 minutes per pound seemed to be too long for bone in spiral.
I am sorry to hear that Todd. Did you wrap in foil? How much water did you use below the ham?
I wonder how apple juice would work.🤔
I bet it would be delicious!
Suggestion: foils is not a good idea in this kind of cookings. Not healthy. Especially when you cook in an hour. But I love ham in a pot. So easy, ty!
what toxins will aluminum foil release in a pressure cooker that don't in a oven and why?
Don't know how I lived without this for so long! I make dog food for 2 of our dogs ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxG-7WiT7ocumjytOpHDFt632PL0pxXRAg (we have 5!) and it is so much quicker in this. Love having the inner pot stainless so I can use my immersion blender right in it without worrying about scratching. It makes potatoes great and fast! Still working on the vegetables, first time came out great, second time I did different ones and they were a little too mushy. Just need to adjust the time. I highly recommend this pot!!!
I put my 5 lb 6 oz ham in for 10 minutes, 2 minutes per pound with orange juice. It was overcooked, very dry!
Hi Beverly, how much liquid did you add and did your instant pot seem to struggle to come to pressure? It should not have dried out in that time unless it struggled to seal or you added too much liquid.
@@AMindFullMom I thought I put in the right amount. I'm new to this thx.
My ham came out dry. I think 18 mins was to long. Another lady said she cooked hers for four minutes that’s probably what I should’ve done now I’m throwing away a ham with the prices of meat right now, I’m not too happy about it
I am so sorry! Was it a honey baked ham that just needed warmed or one from the grocery store? And did you wrap in foil s directed?
Aww dang sorry wish I could email u a ham becuz we got them in sale here in Oklahoma 1.29 for the big ones
User error, pay attention.

My ham never got warm.
Hmm...can I ask if it was sliced and if you used cold water? If so, did you add 10 minutes to account for the foil?
Plug in the instant pot and try it.
you cute.
too much talking
