It’s hard to believe the wonderful flavor of these tender chops could come from such an easy recipe! Our taste panel loved it. Pair with noodles and a simple green salad, and dinner’s served. Tracy Hiatt Grice - Somerset, Wisconsin

I totally agree that the cooking time is way too long; I did it for about 4 hours on low. Also added about1/2 cup dry red wine and it was excellent.

These pork chops were delicious for such a simple recipe. The sauce had lots of flavor. I also cooked them for less time, about 6 hours; my pork chops were on the thinner side. I served it with egg noodles, but mashed potatoes would be great too.

We really liked this - made a mistake with the water, added all (1/2 cup) at the 1/4 point, but thought adding the cornstarch to 1/4 cup of the juices was more flavorable. cooked for 7 1/2 hrs.and the pork was falling off the bone. Also, my husband asked for Mashed potatoes instead of noodles and mixed in some of the sauce with them!

I made similar years and years ago. I put a layer of rice on the bottom of a pyrex pan, browned the chops and layed them on top of the rice; topped all with my veggie sauce on top, covered with foil and baked in a 350 degree oven for approximately 45 minutes. No muss, no fuss, super easy.

Wonderful flavor. Be careful with the length of time in the slow cooker. 2 to 3 hours may suffice.
