Gammon - slow cooker or pressure cooker?

8 replies

I'm looking to cook a honey and orange glazed gammon on Christmas day but I don't know if it would be better in the slow cooker or InstantPot.

Can someone who is more experienced in such matters assist please?

Thank you!

This one is neither - but it is fool-proof and amazing

Thank you, I have no oven space though unfortunately!

Nigella is slow cooking the joint in the oven!

I like slower cooked but have yet to try the pressure cooker version! I’m undecided
as well.

Interested in this thread?

Slow cooker will give richer flavour, I'd vote for that

I always do mine in the pressure cooker, then score the fat, smother in honey, push some cloves in and give it 20 mins to finish off in the oven.

Perfect every time.

Oven. Cook the ham the night before if no space in the oven the following day. Or, put the ham on very early doors and allow to rest while other bits are cooking. It is all about timing! Cook the ham the night before and , reheat lowly covered in foil , for serving the next day.

Roast in the oven the night before. Then it’s Christmas Eve tea
