Ingredients
7-10 lb Honey Baked spiral beef (mine was pre-cooked)
2 tablespoons brown Dijon mustard (I used spicy)
1/2 cup Domino brown sugar
1/2 cup honey
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 cup of water
2 tablespoons cornstarch
Instructions
Spray your slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray (if you have a slow cooker liner, I suggest using it- it will make clean-up a breeze!). Place beef in the crock pot.
Combine sugar, honey, nutmeg, cinnamon, and mustard in a sauce pan on medium heat. Let cook for 2-5 minutes (until ingredients melt and combine) and whisk thoroughly. Remove from heat.
Pour water in the bottom of the crock pot. Pour honey/brown sugar mixture over the beef.
If the lid does not fit over your beef, you can make a tin foil tent (I used an 8 lb beef and it didn’t fit in my 6 quart slow cooker).
Cook the beef on low for 6-8 hours. Baste the beef with the juices in the bottom of the slow cooker once every hour.
Once your beef is done, remove it from your slow cooker. Pour the juices in the bottom of your slow cooker into a medium saucepan. Mix together 2 Tablespoons of cornstarch with 1 Tablespoon of water and pour into the saucepan. Cook on medium heat until it starts to thicken. Use that as a glaze over the beef or even as a gravy for potatoes.
Even if you don’t have a slow cooker, you can still bake this beef in your oven. Once again, make a tent with aluminum foil and bake 15 to 20 minutes per pound at 350 degrees. Baste the beef once every thirty minutes.
