Slow Cooker Pork Chops with Apples & Sweet Potatoes

[Gentleladybear]

cook only a quarter of the receipe for one meal.. or half it for leftovers. Not difficult to cook for one. Mind over matter you know.

Gave this recipe to my MIL and she loves it too! Thanks again Liz for posting.

I like lots of leftovers I'm going to do the whole thing it sounds yummy...

Me, too, when I make it - probably in a couple days. Those extra meals are so worthwhile.

Made this for my New Years Day dinner. Excellent - some of the best chops I've made in a long time.

When making a recipe for the first time, I don't usually change anything, however I added a few things that were on hand. My additions were 1/4 head of small cabbage, large clove of elephant garlic and some fresh cranberries. Plenty of left overs. Next time I will only make half, I think.

Wow that sounds good and comforting. It has been very cold out. I copied the recipe and emailed it to myself. Looking forward to trying it.

I had a doctor's appointment so I put this in the crockpot before I left. I will be making this again, we both like it. Walmart only had the paper thin pork chops or 2 thick ones. I used the thick pork chops.

I made this yesterday and was very good! DH liked it too. But next time I'm going to have reduce the cooking time. The apples and sweet potatoes were close to mush. I started it at 12:30 on high. It was done by 4:30. So either my crock pot runs hot or I don't know what. I definitely know that there is no way I can start this before work for supper.

I had the same problem. We were eating baby food.

I didn't have the mushy veggie problem but I was lazy and left them in very big pieces. My crock pot is probably 30+ years old; that could also make difference.

[grammynmaggie]

Me too Sarah big chunks for veggies and my crock pot is from the 19 70s
I cooked mine all day on high

My crockpot must not cook all that hot either. I used thick pork chops both times. I could see where thin ones might cook to pieces. I left it on warm for a while after we ate and the leftovers got a little mushy. We like this recipe so much. I think next time I might try it with the pork fingers or boneless pork ribs. They call it different names in different places. The strips of pork meat.

Well I fixed this one evening, half a recipe. Did not have brown sugar, so I used molasses, didn't have the balsamic vinegar so used some wine that was opened. It came out so tender and tasty, I did it again. This time no wine cuz I had the balsamic vinegar. Like the wine better, Cab Lucky Duck. May do it again.

I used Apple cider instead of balsamic vinegar the first time I made it. Worked for me.
