Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by placing your boneless ham in the bottom of your slow cooker, ensuring it's laid flat for even cooking. Turn it on low to create a tender masterpiece over the next 6-7 hours.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the apple juice, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, honey, and brown sugar. Add apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Whisk until completely smooth.
- Pour the sauce over the ham in the slow cooker, ensuring it’s evenly coated. Use a spatula if needed.
- Cover the slow cooker and let the ham cook on low for 6-7 hours. Check for doneness by seeing if the meat can easily be pulled apart with a fork.
- Once the ham is fork-tender, remove it from the slow cooker and transfer it onto a cutting board. Shred the meat into bite-sized pieces using two forks.
- Pour the cooking liquid from the slow cooker into a saucepan over medium heat. Bring it to a gentle simmer and stir in the heavy cream, letting it thicken.
- Return the shredded ham to the slow cooker, mixing well with the creamy sauce until thoroughly coated. Allow to simmer for a few minutes before serving warm, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes
Allow the ham to marinate in the mustard mixture for a few hours or overnight for deeper flavor. Avoid high heat to maintain tenderness and creaminess.
