Slow Cooker Gammon In Water
A simple way to cook gammon in the slow cooker with water. Perfect for serving for your Sunday roast, gammon sandwiches and so much more.
Here in the UK we have gammon which is what we call raw ham. But because its cured its very salty. Instead of waiting ages for it to soak in water, we’re cooking it in the water, slowly in the slow cooker. This speeds up the process and it tastes so good.

Notes

Ahead. You can also make your slow cooker gammon ahead of time, then slice it ready for later.
