The Secret to Irresistible Crock Pot Pork Chops
The magic of these pork chops lies in the slow cook—gently braising the meat so it becomes incredibly fork-tender. The pork absorbs all the savory juices from the gravy, onions, and light seasonings. This method also means you can set it and forget it, saving effort without sacrificing flavor.
Enhance the meal with a punch of freshness by adding diced vegetables. For fast, even chopping, the Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper is a fantastic kitchen helper—making prep a breeze.
Preparing the Pork Chops for the Crock Pot
Start with bone-in or thick boneless pork chops for best results—these stay moist while slow cooking. Sear each pork chop in a skillet for 2-3 minutes per side to lock in flavor and give them a beautiful golden color. For optimal results and easy release, use the SENSARTE Nonstick Frying Pan Skillet, 9.5 Inch during this step.
Once browned, transfer the pork chops to your crock pot, layering in sliced onions and chopped veggies. Pour in a mixture of chicken broth, condensed soup, and seasonings for a luscious sauce that will become the perfect gravy.
Effortless Side Dishes for a Complete Dinner
Pair your pork chops with creamy mashed potatoes or steamed veggies. Streamline your food prep with the Ninja BL610 Professional 72 Oz Countertop Blender for smooth mashed potatoes, and keep your sides warm and ready to serve in high-quality food containers like the Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers, Set of 5 (3.2 Cup).
To keep your kitchen organized and tidy throughout the cooking process, the Lifewit Silverware Drawer Organizer, Expandable, Large, Black is a must-have for speedy utensils access.
Serving Up Irresistible Crock Pot Pork Chops
After several hours in your crock pot, the pork chops will be fall-off-the-bone tender and saturated with flavor. Generously spoon the rich gravy over each pork chop before serving. For a finishing touch, scatter freshly chopped parsley or herbs on top for a pop of color.
