We love these sandwiches.
The first time I made them, but husband said, “Wow this tastes just like it came from a really nice deli. ” And he was curious what exactly I did.
And then we went on to eat the whole batch I made. Yes, you can say we loved this and I loved how easy it was.
I was not really sure what to call this recipe today. It is hot ham sandwiches that you cook in the crockpot, but you don’t cook the whole sandwich in the crockpot, only the filling part.
Since you cook the majority of this in the crockpot though, I decided to call them crockpot ham sandwiches.
I used a thinly sliced pre-packaged small ham I bought, but you could easily use a deli-type sliced ham, or I think even leftover ham from a holiday meal. Really, any type of ham should work for this.

These sandwiches look tasty, and easy too! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
What relish, dill or sweet? Sounds really good!
We use dill relish because that is what we like, but I think either would work fine. I say use what you like or have on hand. I hope you enjoy it!
Thanks Lynn, I normally have both kinds of relish in the fridge so just may have to give it a try with both and see which we like best.
Thanks for making Sunday lunch after church a blessing! We loved these!
I am so glad you enjoyed them! They make a perfect Sunday lunch.
My husband and I don’t care for relish, could I leave it out?
would leaving the relish out change the taste much, my husband and I don’t care for it.
If you don’t like it, I think it would be fine to leave it out. If you like pickles you could also chop up some of those to add.
