I was planning on rubbing some brown sugar into the joint of gammon for some extra sweetness but in the end, we decided just to pop the join in the slowcooker and pour Dr Pepper in up to about half way up the joint which was about the equivalent of a can and a half of Dr Pepper
Use unsmoked gammon as the smoked variety will make the dish too salty. 1 small unsmoked gammonjoint all fat removed cubed. Add to slowcooker and cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4-6 hours. 1 small unsmoked gammonjoint all fat removed cubed
now i'm not an expert on cuts of pork - my rabbi would be turning in his grave - so I went in with a gammon on my mind as I wanted to produce a Christmas ham but the butcher was so charming he convinced me to purchase this collar bacon and i'm utterly thrilled with it
You need a ham, we go with an unsmoked gammonjoint. The ham is cooked in the slowcooker so there is almost no work for you to do, switch it on, make some coffee and go watch that box set of “The West Wing” for six hours
I usually add enough water to cover the base of the slowcooker but because I was planning to make soup with the stock, I added more than I usually would – probably about an inch and a half high
