WELCOME

Welcome to this slow cooker/crockpot blog. I believe slow cookers are the best thing to happen to modern day cooks. I used mine often when I worked outside the home and continue to do so even in retirement. It is so nice to put food on and forget about it. Slow cookers also allow us to cook many things we would normally have to use the oven for; what a relief in hot Texas weather! Some of these recipes are mine, many are ones I have collected over the years.

FRUITED PORK CHOPS

  • 6 boneless pork loin chops, approximately 1-inch thick
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 2 pkgs (7-oz each) mixed dried fruit
  • 1 medium-size red bell pepper, seeded and sliced
  • 1 cup favorite barbecue sauce
  • Fresh thyme sprigs for garnish, if desired 
Trim any excess fat from the chops; place in slow cooker or crock pot.  Sprinkle the dried thyme over the chops.  Top with the dried fruit and bell pepper.  Pour the barbecue sauce overall.

Place cover on cooker and cook on low for 4 to 4 1/2 hours or on high for half that time.

Remove pork chops to serving platter, top each with some of the peppers and fruit. Skim fat from the cooking juices in the cooker.  Spoon some sauce over the chops and serve remaining sauce along side, if desired.  

Garnish with the fresh thyme, if desired.


Note: This is my version of a BH&G recipe.
