TOMATO SMOTHERED PORK STEAKS (OR CHOPS) FOR THE CROCK-POT

Steps:

• Cut each steak into 2 or 3 pieces and trim excess fat.
• Pour one can of tomatoes into the bottom of a 6-7qt Crockpot. Top with 1/3 of each of the ingredients, ending with a layer made from half the pork steak pieces.
• Make another layer of 1/3 of everything, ending with the rest of the pork steaks.
• Finish with the remaining ingredients.
• Cook on low for 6-8 hours.
• Remove pork steak pieces carefully (they will probably break up so tongs will work better than a fork).
• Use a slotted spoon to scoop out the veggies and serve them over pasta or rice.
• Top with Parmesan.
• Tip: If you chill the flavorful juices to remove the fat you'll have a delicious starter for soup.
• Note: I do not recommend using an extra-lean cut such as boneless pork loin for this. Extra lean meat tends to dry out in long cooking even when submerged in liquid this way.
• Note: This should be just as good made with beef chuck or chicken thighs.
