Crockpot Pork Chops with Mushroom Soup

Fork-tender pork chops! This simple, affordable dinner is delicious, easy to make and the creamy gravy is perfect over potatoes, rice or pasta.

Like the Crockpot Steak and Potatoes Recipe, this recipe requires only 5 minutes of prep time and uses common ingredients you probably have in your pantry. The slow cooker does all the work! This is a great way to get tender chops every time!

Crockpot Pork Chop Ingredients

For the exact measurements for this easy recipe, please refer to the printable recipe card at the bottom of this post. 

• pork chops - in the recipe I use bone-in pork chops, but boneless pork chops or pork loin chops are great as well.
• can of cream of mushroom soup - you can substitute with cream of chicken or celery, golden mushroom soup is also delicious!
• chicken stock - or bullion, use whichever you have on hand.
• Canned mushrooms - there's something about mushrooms, I can never get enough! If you prefer, you can use sautéed mushrooms. Also delish!
• ranch dressing mix - you know, the powdered stuff. It's such a great flavor shortcut. Or if you'd prefer substitute dry onion mushroom soup mix for the ranch mix.
• cornstarch - this part is optional, but the sauce is so delicious, why not thicken it a bit and turn it into a gravy for your evening meal?!!

Creative variations to try

These are the best pork chops! Add baby potatoes and peeled carrots to the slow cooker if you want a complete meal. Layer the pork chops on next and top with the sauce. Cook as directed. Best part? The crockpot does all of the work for you!

• Make it a meal by adding diced onions, bell peppers, carrots, and green beans, and serve over mashed potatoes. Mmmm!!!
• Adding 3 ounces of cream cheese to the mixture as it cooks adds a wonderful tangy flavor to the gravy.
• To add even more flavor brown pork chops before adding to the slow cooker.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ’s)

The best pork chops for this recipe

There are several different cuts that will work with this recipe. I used bone-in, but use your favorite or use what you have on hand!

• Shoulder or blade chop - Sometimes called a blade steak, it has great flavor, but it is tough. Slow cooked or braised is the best method of cooking.
• Rib or center-cut chop - super lean and great for slow cooking.
• Center cut - more expensive, but super tender and very lean.
• Boneless chop - super tasty and very lean.
• Sirloin chop - a tougher cut of meat great for braising or the slow cooker.
• And last but not least, you could also use a pork roast. Just cut it into 2-inch cubes. It will be amazing!

Remove the pork chops from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. This will allow them to come to room temperature. They will be less likely to get dry.

For best results allow the chops to rest for 10-15 minutes. Remove the meat from the slow cooker, cover loosely with foil and allow to rest.
