🍴 Equipment Needed

Measuring cups

👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prep the Pork Chops
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Optional: Lightly season with salt and pepper if you want extra depth of flavor.

Step 2: Assemble in the Slow Cooker
Arrange the pork chops in a single layer on the bottom of the slow cooker.
Sprinkle the onion soup mix evenly over the chops.
Pour the cream of mushroom soup over the top and gently spread it to fully cover the meat.

Step 3: Cook Slowly
Cover with the lid.
Cook on low for 6 to 7 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours, until the pork is tender and juicy.

💡 Tip: Try not to lift the lid while cooking. Each time you do, heat escapes and the cooking time increases.

Step 4: Check Doneness
The pork chops should reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
They should be tender enough to cut easily with a fork, but not falling apart.
If the sauce seems thin, remove the chops and cook the sauce on high for 10 to 15 minutes to thicken.

Step 5: Serve
Place the pork chops onto plates or a serving dish.
Spoon the creamy mushroom and onion sauce generously over the top.
Finish with fresh herbs if you like.

Step 6: Add Sides
This dish pairs beautifully with:
Mashed potatoes or rice to soak up the sauce
Steamed green beans, broccoli, or carrots for balance
Warm, crusty bread for a classic homestyle feel

✨ Rich, tender, and unbelievably easy, these slow cooker pork chops turn an ordinary night into a comforting, crowd pleasing meal.
