Ingredients
4 bone-in pork chops
½ cup brown sugar
½ cup ketchup
½ cup Italian dressing
Instructions
Prepare the pork chops: Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and place them in the slow cooker.
Make the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, ketchup, and Italian dressing until well combined.
Add the sauce: Pour the mixture evenly over the pork chops, making sure they are well coated.
Slow cook: Cover and cook on LOW for 5–6 hours or until the pork chops are tender and cooked through.
Finish: Spoon some of the rich sauce from the slow cooker over the pork chops before serving.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these sweet and savory pork chops with creamy mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, green beans, or steamed rice. Spoon plenty of the caramelized sauce over the top for extra flavor.
Recipe Notes
Bone-in pork chops work especially well because they stay juicy during slow cooking.
For a thicker, more concentrated sauce, transfer some of the cooking liquid to a saucepan and simmer it for a few minutes before serving.
Avoid overcooking the pork, as cooking time can vary depending on the thickness of the chops and your slow cooker.
