Look what else your Instant Pot™ can do! Holiday ham has never been quicker, easier or more delicious. And surprisingly, you can have it all when you opt for a boneless ham—saving you money and fuss.

Combining these with the cooking liquid makes for a buttery and taste bud-pleasing sauce you can slather all over your sliced ham. So next time you’ve got a crowd to feed or a holiday to celebrate, let your Instant Pot™ do the heavy lifting while you enjoy your company.
