Pork Chops with cheese and bacon on top plated.

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 here. 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.

  • Slow Cooker Pork Chop Stroganoff
  • Slow Cooker Alpine Pork Chops
  • Slow Cooker Minnesota Pork Chops
  • Slow Cooker Apple Butter Pork Chops

Look at that beautiful sauce! The pork juices and the barbecue sauce baste the potatoes perfectly! I hope you try this hearty meal. Which Sweet Baby Ray’s Barbecue Sauce will you choose? Have a great week!

      Tried this tonight, pork chops were ok, didn’t care for the potatoes. My husband gave this recipe a 1 1/2 out of 5.

      This was great! I like to tweak every recipe I use though. So instead of spraying the pot, I buttered it with a soft spatula. I also added a little onion powder and rubbed on the seasonings. I did not have sliced cheese but the shredded turned out awesome.

      If you are wondering if you can cook it longer, you can! (I had classes all day.) I had my crock pot on for 8 hours on low heat. Worked like a charm.

      My husband hates BBQ sauce. Could I substitute w something different? Like maybe A-1?

      • Sarah Olson says

        October 29, 2016 at 6:21 am

        I personally wouldn’t use A-1, it would be too strong. You could go another direction and use cream of mushroom soup with a little milk mixed in and some seasonings? Sorry I am not too much help!

      So I don’t know what happened with mine. It sounded so delicious!! But it wasn’t A good majority of the potatoes were undercooked and the chops turned into bricks. I reeeeaaaalllly wanted to love this one!

        did you leave the lid on the entire time? That would effect the potatoes cooking, and not let the pork get tender.

      Can this go on low for 8 hours instead?

        I have not tried it. The sugar in the barbecue sauce could make it burn around the edges.
