Slow Cooker Onion Pork Chops With Creamy Mustard Sauce

The new favorite dinner at our house are these delicious pork chops. The combination of onions, wine and dijon make the most amazing sauce. Two quick notes: This recipe makes a lot of sauce, so I prefer making six pork chops so none is wasted. Secondly, I recommend cooking it on low and not high. While it is tempting to save time and cook it on high, the pork chops definitely came out tough. Low and slow is the way to go with this one.
