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 Cacciatore
  • 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!

      Have boneless 3/4 inch pork chops. Told her to cut thicker but she didn’t. Large oval crockpot. How long on low?

      OMG this was soooo good! I did a few variations: sweet potatoes instead of white potatoes , added chopped garlic, no bacon or cheese. I didn’t have Sweet Baby Rays but used a smokey bbq sauce. Also, cooked it in the oven at 325 for an hour, potatoes were not done. 425 another half hour and they were perfect! Thank you for sharing!

      I’ve made this recipe numerous times now and my non-meat eating kids even love it. I’ve used both thick and thin sliced chops. I’ve used multiple flavors of bbq sauce. I’ve even made it with just the porkchops and no onions, potatoes, bacon, or cheese. I’ve cooked for both 4 hours on high and 8 hours on low. Every time it has turned out amazing. The chops are always tender. Potatoes always cook. The number one key to this recipe is to NOT take the lid off while cooking. But this a good rule to all crockpot recipes. This is a family favorite and requested at least once a week. Side note: we never ate porkchops in our house before this recipe.

      Hi Sarah! Had this for lunch today and it was really delish! However, the onions seemed to have disappeared! The chops were tender, but probably should have pulled them out about 45 minutes before finish. Back to the onions, I think next time I will carmelize them and put on top of chops after cheese and bacon. Thanks for the recipe!!

      Pretty easy out figure out your time variation if you are use to your crockpot temp.I’m using thick chops so I’ll cut my potatoes the thickness I know it will cook both done at same time. Low 8 hours.

      I have it on the cockpot right now. Cooking it on low for 8 hours but I used thin boneless pork chops and I seasoned my pork chops with garlic powder, adobo and sason before putting them in the crockpot.

        I think the same cook time, because the potatoes will take the same amount of time as the recipe says. 🙂

      Honestly, disappointed. What exactly is “5 cups sliced russet potatoes”? How many potatoes? What is the ultimate outcome from a weight standpoint? What thickness? This recipe is way too vague! And the same goes for “1 cup sliced white onion”. Am I honestly supposed to put these items in a measuring cup? Nope. No cook would say that.

      After four hours, I took my pork chops out. They were done. I’m now on hour 8 for the potatoes. Shame on me if I cut them too thick, but I only tried to follow the slices as depicted in the photos.

      If you want to make this recipe, it has great taste. Just beware of the vagueness and slice thin.

        5 cups of sliced russet potatoes is 5 cups of sliced russet potatoes. Yes I used a measuring cup. I did not say use a certain count of potatoes because I’ve never seen two potatoes the exact size.

        I rarely use a whole onion in a recipe as they are too large, hence I stated to use 1 cup. The potatoes should have cooked no matter what size you cut them if you left the lid on the entire time and have a slow cooker that cooks accurately.

      My stove is on the fritz so we are having to do everything in the crockpot right now. Can I add the bacon earlier and let it cook with the porkchops?

        It can be added earlier if it is cooked. Can you cook it in the microwave? Uncooked bacon in the crockpot can be greasy and mushy.

      Ew I cooked this and it tastes disgusting. No real flavor to the meat. I followed exact instructions and was very disappointed. 4 hours…don’t waste you’re time.

      Chops turned out a bit dry. I sliced potatoes to thin so they were soft. Good flavor. Next time I will cut potatoes thicker and reduce time to 3 hours. My slow cooker is a smaller round version.
