Description

Here's a sweet, savory recipe for the slow cooker. Pork chops wrapped in bacon are broiled and then simmered slowly to tenderness in a sweet chili sauce with pineapple chunks.

Ingredients

6 (4 ounce) pork chops
12 slices bacon
1 (12 ounce) bottle tomato-based chili sauce
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 (8 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained

Directions

1 Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
2 Wrap each pork chop in 2 bacon slices to completely cover the pork chop, and secure with toothpicks. Place the wrapped chops onto a broiler pan, and broil until browned, about 5 minutes per side.
3 Mix together the chili sauce, brown sugar, and Dijon mustard in a bowl. Place the browned pork chops into the bottom of a slow cooker, and pour the chili sauce mixture over the chops. Spread pineapple chunks over the chops, set the cooker to Low, and cook until very tender, about 6 hours.
