Helpful Tips
- For best results, use thicker pork chops so they stay juicy during slow cooking.
- If using frozen pork chops, simply add about 1 extra hour to the cook time.
- For a thicker sauce, remove the pork chops first, then whisk a small cornstarch slurry into the juices.
- Finally, spoon the buttery ranch sauce over the pork chops before serving for extra flavor.
Serving Suggestions
