Receta Inspired by Pinterest ~ Sesame Soy Pork Chops in the Crock Pot
I don't cook pork very often. Personally, I'm not a huge fan. I do add it to our menu every now and again just for a change from our usual beef or chicken dinners. Especially, when it's on sale cheaper than chicken at times.
Talking to a friend a few weeks ago, I wanted to try a recipe for Maple Glazed Pork Chops. For some reason, I assumed that the recipe was for the slow cooker. Instead, it was a grill recipe. Not the cooking method I was prepared for today.
While the kiddos played nicely together, I decided to search Pinterest for Crock Pot Pork Chop Recipes and came up with quite a few options. This recipe for Peking Pork Chops seemed to be the easiest for the time frame I had to throw it together and get it cooking.

Oh, goodness! This dinner was so delicious! The pork was so moist and tender, not dried out which is usually how pork chops turn out when I cook them! The meat fell right off the bone as I served up our dishes! I do think this will be our go-to pork recipe.
