- Peel and dice your onion and add to the slow cooker.
- Submerge your gammon joint in the liquid so that it is ¾ covered.

Notes
Garlic. One of my favourite kitchen hacks is frozen chopped garlic. I buy it from the supermarket and then just grab a little as I need it.
Salt. Gammon, like Virginia ham is very high salt. By being submerged in cola it gets the salt out of the gammon and that is also why you don’t need to add extra salt to the recipe.
