Crock Pot Pork Chops

Kittencalskitchen's Note:

An easy recipe that produces tender pork chops with a wonderful gravy, I used a 3/4-inch thick center cut pork chops and browned them first, you may increase the amount of pork chops and double the sauce recipe, this can also be made in the oven for a shorter time :)

Excellent recipe... Some of my kids are pretty picky and they even loved it! I was afraid from the reviews that it may be too salty, but I made it exactly by the recipe and it was great. I will make this again for sure!

I really enjoyed this dish. I didn't have ginger, nor did I use red pepper flakes because I was afraid the kids wouldn't like it, and it was still flavorful and delicious. My 4 children loved it - they pulled out the orange marmalade as a dipping sauce for the pork. I served with rice and garlic roasted asparagus.

I made this as directed except I forgot the optional red peppers and wish I'd remembered them as it would have made it just that more perfect. This has all the elements of a great recipe (IMHO) easy to prepare, (got to love the crockpot) everything on hand, great taste with a wonderful blend of flavors and spices, tender meat, and great presentation. Thanks Kitten for another great recipe.
