Slow cooker pork chops are made easy in your crockpot smothered in a creamy ranch gravy

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.

    This was so delicious and easy. I was looking for something different to do with pork chops in the crockpot and found this. So glad I did!!

    Both of my kids love this recipe! I buy the thick cut pork chops so usually have closer to 2 lbs of meat. I double everything except the ranch dressing mix and I serve it shredded over egg noodles instead of mashed potatoes. The egg noodles make it a little less heavy.

  3. This recipe was amazing! I live alone so I enjoyed all of it, but shared the pictures with everyone and said it looked amazing. I cannot wait to share this with more people 🥰

    Delicious as written! The only change I’ll make next time is to increase the amount of pork chops in the recipe. I used just over a pound of bone-in chops and ended up with quite a bit of extra seasoning and gravy.

  5. Hello, could you offer dairy free substitute for the ranch seasoning, the gravy seasoning packet and the cream of chicken soup? My kids have severe food allergies to dairy and egg, and are unable to have these as they contain dairy. I love your recipes and I’m usually able to make substitutes on my one, but not sure how to wing this one. Appreciate your help!

  6. Delicious but WAY too salty and I used reduced sodium broth. I’m thinking the salt is very high due to the ranch packet and soup. I think next time I make this I’ll use water instead of broth.

    My first time making slow cooker pork chops with a gravy rather than using apples/cider. This was a great alternative. The chops were SOOOO tender. I added mushrooms and used cream of mushroom soup because that is what I had. The recipe was pretty salty despite using low sodium gravy mix and lower sodium cream soup. Serving over noodles or mashed potatoes helped but my goal is to make again once I figure out tweaks to further reduce the salty taste.
