    Title: Dirty Dave's Easy Smothered Pork Chops
    Categories: Pork, Vegetables, Sauces
    Yield: 2 Servings

    2 (4 oz ea) pork chops
    1 lg Sweet onion; peeled, sliced,
    - separated into rings
    Salt & pepper
    10 3/4 oz Can cream of mushroom or
    - other favourite soup *

    Salt and pepper the chops. Brown them in a small
    skillet over low heat until the desired colour is
    reached and the fat renders. Remove to a plate.

    Add the onion to the skillet and saute it until
    translucent and limp.

    Layer the chops and onions in a baby crock-pot.

    Open the can of soup and add to the skillet with
    a little water (if needed) and heat, stirring, until
    desired smoothness is reached. Pour over the chops
    and onions in the crock-pot, clap the lid on, set
    the control for low and forget about them for 6 to 8
    hours.

    * I have used cream of celery, cream of asparagus and
    cream of potato with good results. But, the stand-by
    is still the good ol' mushroom soup. Every bachelor
    cook's best friend. - UDD

    Serves two with sides. Or just me if I'm hungry.

    From the mind and imagination of Uncle Dirty Dave
