Cooking A Gammon Joint in the Slow Cooker

Yes you can cook gammon in the SC with some sliced onion and apple juice or cider (or stock if you prefer).

With feta cheese I would use it to make a dip or sauce.

I have a gammon in my slow cooker right now. Try 4 hours on high or 8 on low, plenty of water. I always use a meat thermometer to make sure things are cooked.

So have your gammon with a greek salad?

Gammon and Coca Cola. Never thought of that. Yeah. Things really do go better with Coke. Beer goes with gammon, too.
Gammon can also be cooked in a pressure cooker.

Sorry to be a bit thick but would this work with thick gammon steaks as well as a gammon joint? I've only just got my slow cooker but I LOVE it and want to use it more. DD's actually begged for seconds of the stewing steak I did and then asked if I'd cook pork chops/steaks in there next time we had them as it made "everything yummy". Any good receipes for pork chops?

I put just enough water in the Sc to cover the bottom of the crockpot - my gammon wasn't smoked, then washed the meat over and popped it in - gorgeous!

I have gammon in mine today, I forgot about the cola thing - darn! Does it work with diet coke?!

try it with just the bare minimum of water - its delicious, we have one every couple of weeks now.

I hope it works because I've got a small gammon joint in my slowcooker right now

I just put it in about 2 pts of water with a chopped up onion, carrot and the bone out of yesterday's turkey thigh for a bit of flavour. Does anyone know if the resulting juices can be used as stock for soup, or will they be too salty? It's a salted gammon.
