Ingredients
- •Pork Chops, Bone-In(907g)

- •1 teaspoon kosher salt
- •½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- •BBQ Sauce(480g)
- •Yellow Onion
- •Cornstarch(30g)

Instructions
- 1In a small bowl, stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle on both sides of the pork chops.
- 2Lightly coat a 5-quart or larger slow cooker with nonstick spray. Spread a thin layer of BBQ sauce over the bottom, then scatter the onions over the sauce.
- 3Add the pork chops, overlapping somewhat as needed.
- 4Spoon the remaining sauce over the chops so that each has a nice amount on top. Cover and cook on LOW (1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours for boneless chops and 5 to 6 hours on LOW for bone-in chops).**
- 5Remove the pork to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm while you thicken the sauce.
- 6Add the slurry to the slow cooker with the remaining sauce.*** Whisk to combine, cover the slow cooker, and set to high. Let cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens, about 45 minutes to 1 hour depending upon your slow cooker.
- 7Serve the pork chops hot, topped with the thickened sauce and a sprinkle of green onion.
