Best Cut Of Meat For Crock Pot Smothered Pork Chops
I use bone-in pork chops for this recipe. It really gives this dish a lot of flavor, but if you prefer boneless you can certainly do that. But do not use a thin cut pork chop. And be careful when taking them out when they are finished cooking. The meat will be very tender, a good way to take them out, is scoop them with a spatula.
Can You Cook Frozen Pork In The Slow Cooker?
It’s not recommended to cook frozen meat in a slow cooker, as there’s the risk of harmful bacteria contaminating the meat before it reaches a safe temperature. The best place to thaw your meat is in the refrigerator before cooking it in a slow cooker.
Top Tips For Crock Pot Smothered Pork Chops
- Use blade cut pork steaks if pork chops aren’t available.
- Pat the pork dry with a paper towel before cooking and make sure to season with salt and pepper.
- Make sure to remove the bay leaves and skim the fat from the top of the sauce.
- You may be tempted to omit the vinegar, I highly recommend you keep it in, balances out the other flavors perfectly.
