Balsamic Garlic Crock Pot Pork Chops image

I wanted to make crock pot pork chops but am not that fond of sweet barbecue sauce... so, inspired by Kari's stomach-popping chops recipe, here's what I came up with! Darn tasty!

Time 6h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 pork chops, each about 1/2 inch thick
2 medium onions, chopped
2 tablespoons minced roasted garlic
1 celery rib, chopped
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can stewed tomatoes or 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup white wine
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon brown sugar
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons lime juice (lemon juice okay)
1 teaspoon beef bouillon granules
1 1/2 teaspoons dried ancho chile powder
1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1 bay leaf
2 tablespoons cornstarch or 2 tablespoons arrowroot
2 tablespoons cool water

Steps:

  • Add all ingredients except water and cornstarch (or arrowroot) to the crock pot.
  • Cover and cook on low for 5 1/2 hours, then check meat and vegetables for done-ness; remove bay leaf.
  • When meat and veggies are to your preferred texture (about 5 1/2 hours), whisk cornstarch and water together, stir into crock pot, re-cover pot and cook for 30 additional minutes.
  • Serve over rice.
  • Please note: depending on the size and age of your crock pot, cooking times may vary; older crock pots tend to cook a little faster than the newer ones (if you know your pot cooks at a low temp, you might want to turn it to high after 4 hours).
