GRAMMIE'S ITALIAN-STYLE PORK CHOPS
This was my Grammie's favorite way to make pork chops. She always made it with bone-in chops, saying that the marrow added a lot of flavor to the sauce.

Steps:
- 1. Trim the fat off the pork chops, rinse well and pat dry . Cut the pork chops in half or however you need so you can fit them in your pot.
- 2. In a large pot, mix spaghetti sauce, tomato sauce, garlic, parsley, basil and spices. If sauce is very thick add a water a few tablespoons at a time until it reaches a slightly thin consistency. Place pork chops into the sauce so they are covered. Bring to a simmer on medium-low heat then turn down to low heat. Cook 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Gently stir occasionally, making sure the pork chops stay covered.
- 3. Add the onions, peppers, mushrooms and canned tomatoes and cook another 1 1/2 to 2 hours, gently stirring. Pork will slowly cook and become very tender. This dish is done when it can be easily separated with a fork.
- 4. Using a fork and spoon (I use a large salad fork and wooden stirring spoon) separate the pork so it is in bite size and smaller pieces. Serve hot over pasta with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan on top.
- 5. If you want to do this in the crockpot, add 1 cup of water to the sauce and double the cook times. Cook on low heat.
