4. Pour the pepperoncini juice around the pork chops if using.

6. Add the sliced butter pats on top of the pork chops.
7. Cover and cook on low for 2-3 hours, or high for 1-2 hours, until the pork is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 145F. (Cooking time may vary depending on thickness of pork chops).
