CROCK POT BBQ PORK CHOPS
These Crock Pot BBQ Pork Chops are made with BBQ sauce, apricot preserves, onion soup mix, bone-in pork chops, garlic powder. So easy and delicious! I love the sauce for the CROCK POT PARTY MEATBALLS so that was my inspiration for these chops! These are not only simple to make but the pork comes out so tender and the sauce is surprisingly unique and yummy!
IS IT BETTER TO USE BONE-IN OR BONELESS PORK CHOPS?
I am using bone-in pork chops for this recipe for a couple of reasons. First of all, bone-in chops tend to be a little cheaper than their boneless counterparts. Plus, more times than not, I can get the bone-in pork chops on sale. Secondly, the bone-in pork chops are less likely to dry out and get tough. They can handle the longer, slower cooking time and end up coming out so tender that you can cut through them like buttah!
WHAT DO I SERVE WITH CROCK POT BBQ PORK CHOPS?
Serve with a side salad and maybe some steamed and roasted veggies. Or maybe try whipping up some GARLIC MASHED POTATOES or GARLIC PARMESAN POTATOES.
INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (FULL RECIPE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST)
BBQ sauce
apricot preserves
onion soup mix (or MAKE YOUR OWN)
bone-in pork chops
garlic powder
HOW TO MAKE CROCK POT BBQ PORK CHOPS:
In the bottom of a 5-quart (or larger) oval slow cooker, pour in barbecue sauce, apricot preserves and onion soup mix.
Give the mixture a good stir.
Season both sides of each of the pork chops with garlic powder and gently rub it in. Place pork chops into the sauce in the slow cooker and, using a spoon, cover the chops with some of the sauce.
Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours (until internal temperature reaches 145f degrees.) 
Cook's note: Mine were done after 4 hours.
Delicious served with a side salad and some veggies!

Do you think 8 boneless thick cut pork chops would do? Should I double the ingredients.
Brandie @ The Country Cook
I think it depends on how much sauce you want and if the sauce covers the pork chops. The goal here is to have each chop covered in the sauce as it cooks to really infuse it with flavor.
Diane
Pork was delicious, family requested I make it again!! Would like to know if I can use chicken instead of pork?
Brandie @ The Country Cook
Hi Diane! That is wonderful news! Thanks so much! And yes, you can certainly switch out the pork chops with chicken!
Laurie
Can you use chicken instead of pork chops?
Diane

How long for boneless already seasoned with bbq to cook in crock pot ? Don’t want them to be dry I want juicy
dennis
what is the meatball recipe ?
Tim
Excellent! Used 5 thick cut boneless chops each sliced thin into two chops. Plenty of sauce to accommodate another couple of thick cut chops

Trying these right now in my crockpot, I didn't have apricot preserves, so I went with a jar of blackberry preserves, the sauce tastes amazing so far, can't wait for dinner. I think my husband will be thrilled. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
Andrea
Do you think this would come out just as nice in the oven?
Seren
This one is my favorite among all other meals at BBQ. I never thought of making pork chops at home. It looks easy to prepare.
Brandie @ The Country Cook
It's a breeze to make at home. Once you start, you'll never look back - ha!
