Ingredients
To make these slow cooker pork chops, you’ll need:
Bone-in or boneless pork chops, cream of mushroom soup, onion soup mix, water or chicken broth, garlic powder, black pepper, and optional sliced mushrooms or onions for extra texture and flavor.
These ingredients combine in the slow cooker to create a creamy, savory sauce that keeps the pork moist and flavorful.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the Pork Chops
Season the pork chops lightly with black pepper and garlic powder. If desired, quickly sear them in a hot skillet with a little oil for 2–3 minutes per side to add extra flavor, though this step is optional.
2. Mix the Sauce
In a bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, onion soup mix, and water or chicken broth. Stir until smooth and well blended.
3. Slow Cook
Place the pork chops in the bottom of the slow cooker in a single layer. Pour the mushroom and onion sauce evenly over the pork chops, making sure they are well covered.
Cover and cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours, until the pork chops are tender and cooked through.
4. Serve
Once done, gently remove the pork chops and spoon the creamy gravy over the top. Serve hot with your favorite sides.
Tips for the Best Slow Cooker Pork Chops
- Cooking on LOW gives the most tender results
- Avoid overcooking very thin pork chops
- Add mushrooms or onions for extra texture
- For thicker gravy, stir in a cornstarch slurry at the end
Best Side Dishes to Serve With Pork Chops
These slow cooker pork chops with mushroom gravy pair perfectly with:
- Mashed potatoes
- White or brown rice
- Egg noodles
- Steamed green beans or peas
- Roasted carrots
The creamy sauce makes this dish ideal for soaking into grains or potatoes.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or microwave, adding a splash of broth if the sauce thickens too much.
Why This Recipe Works
Slow cooking allows the pork chops to absorb the savory onion and mushroom flavors while staying incredibly moist. The cream of mushroom soup creates a rich, comforting gravy that turns simple pork chops into a family-favorite meal.
