Time 35m

  • Use a flavorful liquid for braising: This could be anything from chicken broth to apple cider.
  • Add vegetables to the slow cooker: This will help create a flavorful sauce and make the meal more complete.
  • Season the pork chops generously: Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder are all good choices. Herbs like rosemary, thyme, and sage also pair well with pork.
  • Cook the pork chops on low for 6-8 hours: This will give the meat time to become tender and fall apart.
  • Serve the pork chops with a simple sauce: A pan sauce made from the braising liquid is a good option.
