For this recipe, you only need a few ingredients. Plum, or peach is optional but it does give the chops just a little extra sweetness, and they look pretty when serving.
You will need a can of Dr. Pepper, one sweet onion, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and some cornstarch.
Pork chops in the Instant Pot are fantastic. Pork tenderloins are as well. We tend to like a hint of sweetness when making pork chops. It’s all a personal preference and simply nice to change things up from the traditional ways we grew up on. Don’t get us wrong, we still love a good ole fashioned breaded pork chop once in a while.
For this recipe, you can use bone-in or boneless pork chops. I lean on boneless more often because I feel you get a little more meat, however, with the bone, you may get a little more flavor. Again, it’s all a personal preference, and hey whatever is on sale these days.
