How to Make Crock Pot Pork Chops
Making slow cooker pork-chops is seriously so easy. Just toss the ingredients into the pot and set it to low. This recipe takes just a few minutes of preparation and your Crockpot does the rest. Come back to it hours later and you'll find perfectly tender, melt in your mouth pork ready to serve!
Tips for making the best boneless pork chops
Using thick-cut chops is essential. Thinner cuts cook too quickly so you will not have the same results.
Add chili paste according to your desired heat level. We use 3 tablespoons for a little kick. If you prefer a milder flavor, add less or omit it altogether. It is fabulous either way.
Cook times will vary based on your Crockpot and the thickness of your chops. It's important that you don't overcook your meat or it will be dry and tough.
Tools needed
- A Slow Cooker - I like mine that is programmable so it’ll only run as long as I want it to then it turns to warm, so food doesn't get overcooked.
- Garlic Press - One of my most used kitchen tools! I received mine as a gift years ago and I can't imagine why I never had one. It minces garlic with one squeeze, with the peel still on!
Why we use boneless pork chops
We like to use boneless meat for this recipe because it reduces the cooking time. Just be sure that you use a thick-cut chop so the meat stays juicy.
Also, when choosing the meat, look for cuts that have some fat (marbling).
Lean meat isn't the best choice for crockpot cooking - you need the fat and marbling to keep the food moist.
When it's time to remove them from the slow cooker, you will need to use a spatula to take them out of the slow cooker. This is because they are so tender, they may even fall apart.
Will the recipe work with bone in pork chops?
Yes, you can make this recipe with bone in chops if you want to.
Be sure to look for chops between 1 and 1 1/2 inches thick. Also, be careful not to cook them for too long. Overcooked meat will be dry and tough.
Can you freeze the leftovers?
Yes, you can easily freeze leftover chops. Just place them in an airtight container or a freezer bag. Then, store them in the freezer and use them within 6 months.
