This slow cooker meal is layered with potatoes, onions, barbecue sauce, pork chops, cheese and bacon! A perfect comforting meal.
Hi, Slow Cooker Friends! What could be better than pork and barbecue sauce? I wanted to make a pork recipe in the slow cooker that wasn’t the usual pulled pork. To my slow cooker, I added pork chops, sliced potatoes, and onions and covered that in barbecue sauce, THEN topped that with bacon and cheese! YUM!
I used an entire bottle of my favorite barbecue sauce Sweet Baby Ray’s. There are so many flavors to choose from, don’t feel like you have to use the original flavor in this recipe, see the other flavors Sweet Baby Ray’s has to offer. I’m going to try the Sweet Golden Mustard next time!
We had a busy weekend of birthday parties and girl scouts. This meal was easy to set up and get going on our way out the door. When we got home I cooked up bacon in the oven, then added that bacon and Colby-Jack Cheese on top of the pork. I often make a big salad on Sunday night for lunches later in the week. I used that salad for a fresh side for this meal.

will this work if the chops are not all the way thawed?
DO YOU ADD ANY WATER TO THE CROCKPOT WHEN YOU COOK THE POTATOES AND ONIONS RECIPE? No! THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT I HAVE POSTED OR ASKED A QUESTION ABOUT THIS RECIPE!!
No, the pork will let out it’s own liquid for this dish.
do we have to add cheese if we don’t have to
I wanted to try this with sweet potatoes instead of russet. Would it be the same in the crock pot?
Also, if I decided to bake the sweet potatoes instead, can I just put the pork chops in by themselves?
Is there an oven baked option?
Hi Lauren, you can probably cook sweet potatoes instead of russet. I think it would be fine with out potatoes. I have no idea on oven times.
I’m about to try it with the family, it smells delicious! Thanks (:
