Ingredients

• 4 pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 packet onion soup mix
• 1/2 cup water (or low-sodium broth for more flavor)

Instructions

1. Prep the slow cooker
   Lightly grease the inside or use a liner for easy cleanup.
2. Add pork chops
   Place the pork chops in a single layer at the bottom.
3. Mix the sauce
   In a bowl, combine brown sugar, onion soup mix, and water. Stir until blended.
4. Pour & coat
   Pour the mixture evenly over the pork chops, making sure they’re well coated.
5. Cook low & slow
   • LOW: 6–7 hours
   • HIGH: 3–4 hours
6. Serve
   Spoon the sweet-savory sauce over the chops before serving.

Tips & Variations

• Add sliced onions or garlic for extra depth.
• Toss in potatoes or carrots to make it a one-pot meal.
• For a thicker sauce, remove the lid in the last 30 minutes or stir in a cornstarch slurry.

What It Tastes Like

The brown sugar caramelizes into a rich glaze while the onion soup mix adds a savory, slightly salty balance—creating a perfect sweet-and-savory combo with almost no effort.
