Campout and Crockpot BBQ Porkchops

Hello, my friends!!!  Oh, how I have missed my blog!  This has been one challenging month.  Everyone in our home has been sick except for Bill.  Bless his heart, that's probably simply because he has been here so little.  He finally got back in last night from a run that was over two weeks.  We were so happy to see him again!

Our children got to enjoy their first little camp out Thursday evening and all day Friday at our church.  We are so blessed with such a wonderful church that puts so much time and effort into building up children.  The kiddos had been so sick, so I was really worried they were not going to be able to go.  Perhaps it would have been better for their health if they had not gone, but how could I not let them go when they had looked forward to it for so long?  :)  These are a couple of pics of their fun. (To all my Facebook friends, sorry you have to endure them again.  :))





They have been exhausted all day today, but we all think it was worth it!  We weren't even in the car last night on the way home before they were asking when next year's camp out will be.  :)

Well, on one of my many days in the last couple of weeks when I was completely exhausted, I had the sound mind to pull a family pack of boneless assorted chops out of the freezer for the next night.

I picked out these spices from my drawer.  If you have these spices in your supply,
sprinkle a little of each on each side of the chops.  It seems like I decided to add a little pepper after I took a picture of the spices. I didn't measure anything.  I just sprinkled what looked good to me.  I poured about 1 1/2- 2 tablespoons oil in the bottom of the crockpot, and put the pork chops in on low.
When the chops were close to being done, I poured on our favorite BBQ sauce.  This is what they looked like when they were done. 
These were so good!  The chops were moist and just fell apart with a fork.  I am so happy I found the courage to try them in the crockpot!  This may be the way I do them from now on.  Mmmm...mmm! I hope some of you try them and let me know how you like them.  Perhaps you'll do something I like even better, so make sure you share! 

Until we meet again, may you be blessed!

    1. Thank you for stopping by! It really depends how many you are cooking. Mine usually cook in about four hours. I just cook until they cut with a fork. :)
