Instructions
Combine all ingredients into a freezer safe bag except chicken broth.
Freeze.
When ready to cook thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
Empty bag into a slow cooker and add 1/2 cup chicken broth.
Look on low for 6-8 hours.
Drain apples from broth and serve pork chops with apples on top.
Add salt and pepper if desired before serving.
Optional - If desired you can thicken with arrow root powder to create a gravy. I served without gravy and it was delicious.
