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!

I have not been very successful cooking pork chops. I followed this recipe using four thick-cut bone-in pork chops. It was easy and delicious!
This recipe is wonderful and tastefully delicious! The pork chops are so tender in the crockpot and the sauce has great flavor. I paired this recipe over rice. My family asked for seconds and now is on the top of the list for dinner ideas! So good!
I always add a packet of Lipton’s onion soup mix.
Wanting to try this tomorrow. I have boneless chops and more if them. Would you leave time the same? Can’t wait to tru this!
The time will stay the same 🙂
Just put some boneless sirloin chops in the crockpot- I did not have the ranch dressing but I did have the ranch seasoning which I think is basically the same- can not wait to have them later tonight over a bed of rice,
I don’t have brown gravy mix. Can I add a jar of Au jus gravy instead??
We make these recipe a lot in our house. So
good and so easy! We like flavor in our house so the salt amount is on point!
These are so good! I don’t normally cook pork chops but I came across this recipe and figured I would try it and I’m so glad I did.
Just a caveat – it is a bit salty. You could probably cut down on the saltiness by using reduced sodium beef broth though. I subbed the cream of chicken soup for cream of mushroom soup and added sliced onion. Served it over (instant) mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli.
I will definitely be making this again!
Did same recipe with a couple of rib eye steaks. Amazing!!
My husband & I are trying this recipe as I type this! We had to adjust the serving size to accommodate the rather large porkchops we have lol. Hopefully they turn out as good as they sound!!
Anyone ever try this with frozen porkchops or do I need to thaw first?
Has any ever tried this recipe without adding the beef broth at all or only half of it
Loved this! What a simple quest for Pork chops followed the instructions to the tee yummm
Used sweet potatoes with just a dizzying of the sauce
Would you recommend changing the cooking time for four thick cut (about 2”) bone-in chops? Or would it still be the same as described in the recipe?
Hi! I’d keep it the same, they shouldn’t dry out. You could try maybe shaving an hour off the cooking time, but that’s about it. Hope that helps 🙂
This recipe is wonderful and delicious! The sauce is excellent and the pork chops turn out so tender in the crockpot. The sauce has great flavor and I paired this recipe over jasmine rice. Everyone wanted seconds, So good!
This is divine. I made my second batch with cream of bacon soup and chicken stock. It is a Crockpot Winter Treat! Thank you!
