Best Slow Cooker Pork Chops

We absolutely loved this pork chop meal here at the house, and there are several things I love about it.

It’s the perfect family meal. It gives us an opportunity to have a home-cooked meal at the table as a family.

It is super easy to make and only takes about five minutes to get the ingredients into the Crock Pot and cooking, which is nice when we all stay so busy.

The pork cooks up so tender and falls apart the minute your fork touches it. The red potatoes are soft and the ranch seasoning adds so much flavor to the dish.

This is a versatile recipe, as well. You can also use pork tenderloin or pork shoulder instead of pork chops. And pork recipes always taste great.

Another variation includes cream of mushroom soup or cheddar cheese soup.

And pork is perfect for barbecues, family gatherings, potlucks at church, holiday meals, and gatherings of any size because it’s so easy to make and leaves everyone full and satisfied.

Pork Chops And Potatoes

We grew up spending a lot of time on my grandparent’s farm in west Tennessee and eating quite a bit of pork.

My grandfather had a few hogs on his farm, so pork was something that we ate a lot of.

Pork Is Raised By Farmers In America

One of the great things about eating pork is that it is raised in Wisconsin and other states in this country, so you’re helping local farmers.

The farmers are raising their hogs with care and when you buy it from the grocery store or a local meat market you are supporting those American farmers and their families.

Step-By-Step Instructions For the Crock Pot Ranch Pork Chops Recipe

Start by rinsing off and slicing the small red potatoes into quarters.

Next, grab another bowl and add two cans of cream of chicken soup and minced onion.

I use dried minced onion for this recipe. It adds a lot of flavor, and I don’t have to spend any time dicing onions.

I like to try and find the easiest way to make a meal and create less fuss for weekday dinner recipes.

You can use fresh onions if you’d like to. If you use fresh onions, I would add about 1/4 cup, in lieu of the dried onions.

Sprinkle the salt and pepper on top.

Add the dry ranch dressing mix to the bowl.

You can use generic or Hidden Valley Ranch.

Finally, pour the milk into the bowl and mix well.

Grease the slow cooker and place the potatoes in the bottom.

Place pork chops on top of the potatoes.

For this recipe, I used boneless pork chops. They are not super thick-cut pork chops.

You can use whatever size you’d like for this recipe. It will turn out a tender meat after cooking for several hours.

Pour ranch mixture and soup on top of the pork chops.

Place the lid on the Crock Pot and set the Crock Pot to cook on low heat for seven hours.

With the cooking time of seven hours, you will end up with the most tender pork chops and potatoes.

The mixture creates an amazingly delicious creamy ranch gravy when the meal is done slow cooking.

When the pork chops and potatoes recipe finishes cooking, remove the lid and shred the pork chops. Give everything a good stir.

That’s it! It’s ready to eat, and you don’t have to do much work for one amazing dinner.

Slow cooker creamy ranch pork chops are amazing every time.

The pork comes out so tender and flavorful after cooking for hours in the ranch seasoning and soups.

When pork chops are cooked in the Crock Pot for seven hours, they will reach the appropriate temperature.

When cooking pork chops in the oven or on the grill, they need to get to an internal temperature of 145 degrees.

If you have any leftovers, you can keep them in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

More Delicious Slow Cooker Recipes

I love to make slow cooker meals, especially if it’s a busy day or busy weeknight. It’s easy to make a delicious dinner for the family when you add things to the Crock Pot.

You can add some favorite sides to the dish or add some veggies right into the slow cooker.

Be sure to add these to your dinner rotation.

• Slow cooker pork roast with vegetables – this recipe is a huge hit during the winter months. It’s definitely one of our favorite recipes.
• Slow cooker Italian tortellini – the best part of this meal is the combination of delicious ingredients.
• Slow cooker smoked sausage and potato soup – this delicious recipe is packed with veggies and sausage. This also calls for a packet of ranch dressing mix, and it adds a lot of great flavor.
• Easy Crock Pot mashed potatoes – these are great if your oven is full. You can always add some creamy ranch sauce, cream cheese, or a dry mix ranch packet to make this a unique and fun recipe. Don’t forget the delicious gravy to pour over the top. (You can also make some gravy out of ranch dressing – give it a try!)
