How To Make Crock Pot Pork Chops
1. Mix the stuffing: In a large bowl, mix together the boxed stuffing and chicken broth. Coat all of the stuffing in the broth, then set it aside.
2. Prep the pork chops: Place pork chops in the bottom of your slow cooker. Pour the cream of mushroom soup over the pork chops and spread it out evenly to make sure each pork chop is coated in the soup. Spread the stuffing mixture evenly over the top of the pork chops.
3. Cook pork chops: Put the lid on the crockpot and cook on low for 4-6 hours. When the pork chops are finished cooking, serve warm with mashed potatoes or any side you want. Enjoy!
My Tips To Make The Best Recipe
- Swap cream of mushroom soup for other soups, like cream of chicken soup or cream of celery soup, for a different flavor.
- If you're using bone in pork chops, keep in mind the cooking time may be longer than if you're using boneless pork chops.
- Use a meat thermometer and check for an internal temperature of 145°F to know when the boneless chops are done cooking.
- Experiment with adding ingredients, like garlic powder, onion soup mix, or ranch seasoning, to make a more flavorful soup mixture.
- Sear the pork chops in a cast iron skillet before adding them to the slow cooker so they get a nice caramelized exterior.
How I Recommend Storing Crock Pot Pork Chops
In the fridge: Store any leftover pork chops in an airtight container and store them in the fridge for 3-4 days.
In the freezer: Allow the cooked pork chops to cool completely, then transfer them to an airtight container or freezer-safe bag and freeze for about 4 months.
Reheating: I just transfer the pork chops and stuffing into a baking dish and warm them in the oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes until heated through. Let the frozen pork chops and stuffing thaw in the fridge overnight, or add more reheating time.
