You will think that it is too much seasoning, but trust me. It is not. A combination of Lawry’s seasoned salt, paprika, onion powder, black pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper adds tons of flavor which is really important because slow cooker pork chops can sometimes be a little bland.

The bone not only adds flavor, it helps keep the pork tender and moist.
