Ingredients Quantity
4 thick-cut bone-in pork chops (about 2 1/2 to 3 pounds total, 1 to 1 1/4 inches thick)
1 cup packed light or dark brown sugar
1 cup bottled Italian salad dressing (regular, not fat-free)
1/4 cup soy sauce (low-sodium preferred)
Optional Additions
2–3 cloves garlic, minced (for extra depth)
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
Sliced onions or bell peppers
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard for a tangy twist
Tips for Success
Use thick-cut pork chops to prevent overcooking and dryness
Sear the pork chops briefly before adding to the slow cooker for added flavor (optional but recommended)
Avoid lifting the lid frequently—this releases heat and slows cooking
For a thicker sauce, remove the lid during the last 30 minutes of cooking
Instructions
Place the pork chops in the bottom of the slow cooker in a single layer if possible.
