If you are serving this ham at a buffet or potluck setting, slice the ham into serving size pieces and return to the crock pot after you've thickened the sauce. Put a large meat fork and a ladle next to the crock pot so people can spear a piece of ham and ladle their own sauce on top.
This is an excellent ham dish for special occasions and holidays. Both kids and grownups like this ham because it's sweet, but not overwhelming or 'sugary.' Enjoy!
