A sweet and tangy, affordable and easy recipe. Simple and loaded with veggies. Does not have an overpowering flavor, kid approved. Browning pork chops is an important step, don't skip! I add meat tenderizer to any slow cooker meat, you do not need to add salt, the tenderizer and broth add plenty. Use fresh ground nutmeg! Great with boiled potatoes alongside.

Time 4h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon canola oil
6 bone-in pork chops
½ cup apple juice
¼ cup apple cider vinegar
1 ½ cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon brown sugar
½ teaspoon meat tenderizer
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 Granny Smith apples, cored and sliced
1 sweet onion (such as Vidalia®), sliced
¼ head cabbage, shredded

Steps:

  • Heat the canola oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, and brown outsides of the pork chops thoroughly, about 5 minutes per side.
  • Mix together the apple juice, cider vinegar, chicken broth, brown sugar, meat tenderizer, garlic powder, nutmeg, ginger, and black pepper in a slow cooker, stirring until the brown sugar has dissolved.

An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a chop should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

  • Searing the pork chops before adding them to the slow cooker is an important step that helps to develop flavor and prevent them from becoming dry.
  • Using a variety of apples in this recipe adds depth and complexity to the flavor. Feel free to experiment with different types of apples, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Pink Lady.
  • Adding a splash of apple cider vinegar to the slow cooker helps to tenderize the pork chops and adds a subtle tanginess to the dish.
  • Be sure to cook the pork chops on low for at least 6-8 hours, or until they are fall-apart tender. This will ensure that they are perfectly cooked and have absorbed all the delicious flavors from the apples and spices.
