Slow Cooker Pork Chops are incredibly easy to make and smothered in a creamy, mouthwatering gravy! You can make pork chops right in your crock pot and have a hearty, comforting, and budget friendly dinner the whole family will love!
Well, it has been a minute or two since I posted a good old fashioned slow cooker recipe. Super tender slow cooker pork chops smothered in gravy is something I grew up on, and something I still can’t get enough of even today.
Did you grow up eating pork chops on the regular? Or was your family all about chicken?
My mom always mixed it up with a little of both. I still appreciate that we never really ate the same things over and over, and hopefully, my kids feel the same way now!
Crock Pot Pork Chops is one of the most requested dinners from everyone in my house. I’m happy to oblige because it doesn’t get much easier than this meal.
Plus, it’s just a really great comfort food style dinner. Incredibly satisfying on these cold winter evenings…..and by that, I mean we have a heap of snow on the ground and I’m completely over it!
While I do love a good pork chop, I think the gravy is really the shining star here. I could easily eat this creamy gravy with a spoon. It’s just even better that it gets coated over some of the most tender pork chops you will ever eat. If you love pork chops in the crockpot like we do, be sure to try these Slow Cooker Pork Chops with vegetables too, it’s an amazing full meal! These Baked Pork Chops are amazing too!
We really enjoy this dish with my homemade Cream Cheese Mashed Potatoes and a big green salad on the side.
How to Make Slow Cooker Pork Chops:
One of the questions I get asked most frequently is simply how to make pork chops in a crock pot. I think people love pork chops, but aren’t always sure exactly how to cook them so that they stay nice and juicy.
For the very best result, the slow cooker is the only way to go in my opinion!
-
You will want to season your pork chops really well. For my recipe, we use ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, and pepper. I don’t add any extra salt, it isn’t necessary. I’d recommend making as directed without extra salt, then let people salt this dish at the table if that is their preference.
-
This Slow Cooker Pork Chop recipe calls for very minimal ingredients that combine for a truly delicious result. I always have everything like cream of chicken soup, brown gravy mix, ranch seasonings, and beef broth (you can also use chicken broth) on hand. So, this is really a nice “pantry staple” recipe.
-
Thickening the gravy is optional, but, I do recommend it! After your pork chops are finished, you can simply remove them from the slow cooker very carefully. Then, stir together two tablespoons of cornstarch with two tablespoons of water and add it right to the gravy. Turn the crock pot back on high and you should have a nice thick gravy in just about 5-10 minutes.
Enjoy!

This was delish!!!
I changed it a little by only adding 1/2 a can of the broth and that way I didn’t have to thicken the gravy. It came out perfect. I also added mushrooms (canned). It’s a little on the salty side, so I’d use half of the packet of ranch, or low sodium broth.
Thank you for the recipe! It’s a keeper!
Absolutely delicious! I will make this again, it was so good! Thank you, Nichole!
Do you brown the chops first?
I’ve made this recipe repeatedly since finding it a few months ago! It’s SO GOOD and easy to make! I’ve sometimes substituted pieces out based on what I have on hand – chicken stock for beef, pork stew meat instead of porkchops and it still comes out amazing! This is a winner and going in the recipe book for good!
Best pork chops ever! I was skeptical when I saw the ingredient list, but am so glad I gave it a chance! Thank uou!!
Honestly the best porkchops ever!!!! I always over cook pork and it comes out dry but this is so easy and delicious and moist!!! Love it!!!
Just made this recipe and oh boy was it a hit! I didn’t have gravy mix but did have a pkg of Au Jus so I substituted that, and otherwise followed recipe exactly. My family devoured this and my husband did the drink from the plate thing!! Will definitely make again! Thanks for the great recipe!
Glad to see this because I was just getting ready to try with the Aus Jus packet. Thanks for posting !
Just made these and they are delicious! So easy to make, pork cooked perfectly! This will be a regular at my house from now on.
These are amazing! Made them tonight and added 4 small-medium sized potatoes (cut in half) and some frozen, uncooked, cut carrots. I didn’t have any cornstarch, so used Ultra Gel to thicken the gravy. I have leftovers for tomorrow night… can’t wait! Be sure to have bread to clean out the slow-cooker (not ashamed…LOL!) This will be the only way I’ll be making pork chops from now on. Can’t wait to look through your recipes!
Made from frozen pork chops and this worked fabulously. Everyone loved it. Thanks for the recipe- love that it is simple and easy.
I made the pork chopsLast night and they were absolutely delicious. I always overcook my chops and they are dry but these were so good the gravy was excellent the only thing I did different was I added sliced mushrooms in the gravy and then have it over the pork chops and this is a keeper thank you so much for finally letting me have a recipe that I am proud to say I made pork chops
