While you can use any pork chops that you happen to have around, we like the sirloin chops or boneless loin chops, but because they cook for a long time, you can also use bone-in pork chops.

8 Servings

3 pounds sirloin pork chops, or boneless pork loin chops
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 medium onion, sliced
1 lemon, sliced and seeds removed
1 green bell pepper, cored, seeded, and sliced
1 to 3 Serrano peppers, cored, seeded, and chopped, or jalapeño peppers
2 cups catsup
1/2 cup brown sugar

Hot cooked rice

  1. Place the pork chops on the bottom of a 4-6 quart slow cooker; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  2. Layer the onions, lemon slices, green pepper, and Serrano peppers over the pork chops.
  3. Mix the catsup and brown sugar; pour over all.
  4. Cover the slow cooker, set the slow cooker to low, and cook 4-6 hours or until the pork is tender. After 3 hours, tilt the lid slightly to remove excess liquid. If the sauce is still too thin, pour the liquid into a saucepan and boil until thickened; pour over the chops. Serve with hot cooked rice.
