  3. Once the sauce is ready, pour it over the ham in the slow cooker.
  4. Let the ham cook on low for 6 to 7 hours, checking occasionally.
  5. Once the ham is tender, carefully remove it from the slow cooker and shred it into bite-sized pieces.
  6. Pour the cooking liquid into a saucepan, bring to a simmer, and stir in the heavy cream.
  7. Return the shredded ham to the slow cooker, adding the thickened creamy sauce to coat it evenly.
  8. Serve your slowcooker creamy mustard pulled ham warm, garnished with fresh parsley.
