Maybe I did something wrong since all the other reviewers loved this recipie. It came out horrible. We ended up having to eat out since no one wanted to try the ham. It was overcooked and smelled awful. I was really disappointed since I was looking forward to this meal all week. I followed the directions to the letter, but it was still awful.

Very Easy and very good. The only thing I changed was I used a boneless 1/2 ham instead of a canned ham. I happened to be at home the day I made this, so every couple of hours I would baste the ham with the O.J. mixture but I don't think that is necessary. The family raved about it. I will make this again.

I did not like this recipe at all. The combination of orange juice and pineapple left a very bitter flavor. I thought that adding some more brown sugar would help, but it didn't. I ended up pouring the entire thing out of the crockpot and just putting in water, brown sugar and honey to save my ham. At least I can say this much - the ham cooked very well in the crock pot despite the fact that my pot seems to burn things often.

Very easy and family loved it. Used tidbits instead of crushed pineapple. Will definitely make this again often.

I tried this for a holiday dinner and it was great! I thickened the sauce with a little corn starch after it was done and served it as a glaze at the table. Will definitely make again!
