Crockpot Sour Cream Pork Chops and Prize Pack Winner

This might not be the prettiest food on a plate but it is very good. My family loved these tender pork chops so I wanted to share with all of you. So quick and easy to put together in the morning. At dinnertime, make some vegetables along with rice or noodles and you've got a delicious dinner on the table.

The recipe says to transfer the pork chops to the oven to keep warm while you put the sour cream in the crockpot to make the sauce. I kept the pork chops in the crock pot while I added the sour cream for the last 30 minutes. I just stirred in the sour cream mixture carefully.



Enjoy!

Vacation time. Sand in the toes. Beach. Unbelievable neighborhood fireworks. Searching for cool shells. Joe Patti's Seafood Market. Naval Aviation Air Museum. Shrimp Boil. Boogie Boarding. Kids playing Clue with Uncle Larry until midnight (every night). Wet towels. Peach and Blueberry Crumble with vanilla ice cream. Laughing. Taking pictures. Hot tea at night. Blackened Red Fish. Singing Michael Jackson songs in the van. Lunch at Peg Leg Pete's on Pensacola Beach. Boston Terriers enjoying all the love and attention. Homemade Pizzas. Ice Cream Cones. Jelly fish. Bagels in the morning. Inflatable slip and slide. Smiles. Fun.

Family Memories

My brother Larry, his wife Aggie, their 2 children and my niece Janey, came for a 4th of July weekend visit. It's a long drive from Central Florida to Pensacola FL so I wanted to have dinner ready and waiting for them when they arrived. This barbecue pork is made in the Crock-pot and couldn't be more easy to make. And it couldn't be more delicious.



First thing you need is to select your Boston Butt.....oops not these Boston Butts.......


But use this Boston Butt pork cut



Barbecue Pulled Pork Sandwich
Recipe by Jamie (adapted from Aggie's Kitchen)


4-5 lb Boston Butt pork
small onion - sliced
3-4 garlic cloves - peeled and smashed
Pork Rub seasoning (I used McCormick Grill Mates Pork Rub)
water
salt & pepper
Barbecue Sauce - your favorite (I used Sweet Baby Rays)
Sandwich buns

Sprinkle pork rub seasoning all over meat. Rub in well. Cut onion in large slices. Place pork in Crock-pot. Add onion & garlic. Add water to cover about half of pork. Add a little salt and pepper if desired. Cook on low for 9-10 hours. Remove pork and place in large pan or cookie sheet. Remove water and other ingredients from Crock-pot. Shred pork with 2 forks. Remove any bones or fat. Add some barbecue sauce to pork, about 1/2 cup. Place pork back in Crock-pot to keep warm. Serve on buns with extra barbecue sauce.


Shredded pork


Serve with fries and coleslaw for a complete barbecue meal

Enjoy!



Mom's Cooking Club Lesson: This is a great meal to serve for a group of people. Put it in the Crock-pot in the morning with very minimal prep work and by the evening you have dinner ready. I like to have a variety of barbecue sauces that people can use and add to their sandwich.
