These were pretty good. As another reviewer noted, they were definitely fall-off-the-bone tender, but the meat itself was dry. That's just the nature of pork chops, though. I'd make this again - although it takes a while to cook, it's a tasty fall meal with little active prep time. I served it with garlic mashed potatoes and roasted brussels sprouts, to positive reviews from my family.

Also worth noting: I don't have a slow cooker, so I adapted the recipe for my dutch oven. I cooked the chops for 90 minutes at 300 degrees, then 5 hours at 200 degrees.

I understand that these are "pepper pork chops", but I found it way too "peppery" even when I had used only one half the amount of pepper called for in the recipe. Also much too salty even using less salt than called for. The meat was fall-apart tender after only 3 1/2 hours on low, much shorter than the recipe indicates. The overall taste was OK, but I would cut the salt and pepper further. Not sure that I would make this one again.

After soaking in a brine solution all night- rinsing and patting dry i was supposed to hit 4 measley chops with a whopping 2tsp of salt? No way it even LOOKED like too much salt. I entirely skipped this step and instead used a little (less than 1/2 tsp low sodium blend of Emeril Esscence I'd whipped up previously. I used unsalted veggie and chicken broths. I also cut the pepper in the second half of the recipe in half because a tablespoon felt too much even for a 'pepper' recipe.

The meat was fall apart tender but a little on the dry side. It was as salty and peppery as beef jerky and yet that was not the result i was going for (the apples also tasted like beef jerky.

Boo hoo-- i really didn't like this one. If you slow cook anything it'll be fall apart tender-- it doesn't need to soak in a salt lick overnight and get doused again with salt to do the trick.

My sister made these for my daughter and I last night. They were unbelievable! Fork tender and fell off the bone. I will definitely be making them myself! Thank you Alton.

i love this dish i used all low sodium veggie broth & chicken broth that might help with the salt but i thought there was a little too much pepper for my taste so next time im going to use less pepper! but very flavorful !

First time I made a brine and I'm sold! These pork chops are super easy, and packed with tons of flavor. Was nervous when the slow cooking wasn't very aromatic, but was unfounded. Meat just falls off the bone. I can't wait to make this again.

Made this for the first time this week....SO good! The prep work is very easy, marinated in the brine overnight. I didn't have pork chops on the bone, so I used thick cut boneless chops. Still came out fork tender. Will be keeping this one in the recipe files!

These were a little too salty for my taste. The pork chop itself is falling off of the bone though! And you can taste almost every ingredient. I may try this again and hold back on the salt.
