Place the ham in your slow cooker and cover it with a lid. Turn on the slow cooker to low heat, set for 6 hours and let it cook. Do not remove the ham from its cooking vessel while it is cooking.

Remove ham from oven and let cool on a cutting board for 15 minutes before removing the skin.

After the ham has cooked for 10 hours, remove it from the oven and let cool on a cutting board for 15 minutes before removing the skin. Use a sharp knife to cut around the edges of the ham and remove any fat that is attached to it. Then use a paper towel or kitchen towel to soak up any excess fat that remains on top of your meat.

Using a sharp knife, score (cut shallow lines) in an X pattern over top of entire surface area of your cooked pork butt/ham. This helps prevent cracking when you slice into your baked masterpiece later!

To make sure you get the best results possible when cooking your ham, follow these tips:

  • Make sure that you have enough room for your ham in your oven or on top of your stovetop before starting it! You don’t want to be stuck with an overflowing pot because it’s too big for what you’ve got!
  • If possible, buy pre-cooked hams from stores like Costco or Sam’s Club so they’re already cooked when they get home (you’ll just need to reheat them). This way there won’t be any guesswork involved in figuring out how long it should take for yours since theirs already know how long theirs take based on their standard cooking times–and this way also saves money because buying smaller amounts means less waste!

Conclusion

In conclusion, 10 Pound Hams take about 6 hours to cook in a slow cooker. However, all slow cookers are different and may need a different amount of time to cook.
