In a small bowl, mix 3 tablespoons of honey with 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Stir until well combined.

Preheat your crockpot on the high setting. This will be used to heat up the ham.

Separate the slices of the ham slightly by running your fingers through them. Using a brush or spoon, generously brush the honey butter mixture over the ham slices. Make sure to get it between the slices for maximum flavor. Place the ham into the preheated crockpot. Cook the ham in the crockpot on high for 2 hours. This will heat it thoroughly.

In another bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of granulated sugar with the seasoned salt, onion powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, ground cloves, and paprika.

After cooking in the crockpot, transfer the ham to an oven safe dish. Coat ham with some of the sugar and spice mixture (save about half of the sugar mixture). with the broiler setting turned on. Keep a close eye on it. As the sugar on the ham begins to caramelize (in about 3-5 minutes), remove the ham from the oven.

In a small saucepan, combine the remaining sugar mixture with 3 tablespoons of either water or the juices collected from the bottom of the slow cooker. Stir the mixture and bring it to a boil. Let it boil for approximately one minute, then remove the saucepan from the heat source.

Brush or drizzle the glaze over the ham, then broil it once more for a minute or two, ensuring it doesn't burn. Take the ham out of the oven and allow it to rest for 5-10 minutes. Serve it either warm or cold and savor the deliciousness!
