Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Arrange the pork chops in a single layer at the base of your slow cooker. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a mixing bowl, harmoniously blend the teriyaki sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, chili-garlic sauce, ground ginger, dried minced garlic, dried minced shallots, garlic-pepper seasoning, and kosher salt. Ensure all ingredients are well combined. (5 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Generously pour the sauce mixture over the pork chops, ensuring each chop is thoroughly coated. (2 minutes)

04

Step
4 hrs

Initially, cook on High for 1 hour to jumpstart the process. Then, reduce the setting to Low and allow the pork chops to gently simmer until exquisitely tender, approximately 3 hours more. (4 hours)

For enhanced depth, sear the pork chops in a hot skillet before adding them to the slow cooker. This will add a beautiful color and caramelized flavor.
Feel free to adjust the amount of chili-garlic sauce to your liking. If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount, or omit it altogether.
These pork chops are delicious served over steamed rice, mashed potatoes, or creamy polenta. Garnish with chopped green onions or sesame seeds for an extra touch of elegance.
The slow cooker locks in the juices, but ensure the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C) for safe consumption.
