Crock Pot Pork Chop Chili

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup diced onion
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
• 3/4 cup water
• 1 1/3 cups ketchup
• 1 teaspoon Mexican chili powder
• 4 pork chops (bone in preferred)

• 1 (15 ounce) can dark red kidney beans

• 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes (no salt added)

Directions

1. 1

   Lightly brown onions in oil.

2. 2

   Add garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, water and ketchup.

3. 3

   Simmer the sauce for 10 minutes.

4. 4

   Arrange pork chops in crock pot, pour sauce over the chops.

5. 5

   Cover and cook for 20 minutes on HIGH.

6. 6

   Turn to LOW HEAT for 3 1/2 hours.

7. 7

   Add beans and tomatoes. Cover and cook for another 1 1/2 hours, for a total of 5 hours cooking on LOW heat.

8. 8

   The pork will fall off the bones. Remove bones and serve.

9. 9

   If you're in a hurry, you can add the tomatoes and beans earlier and cut the total cooking time. In my crock pot, the pork is well-cooked at about 4 hours.

    Note: This is the kid-friendly not-very-spicy version. For extra heat, feel free to add more chili powder.
