How to Make Smothered Pork Chops in the Crock Pot
Step 1 – First, put the pork chops in the crock pot. Place the mushrooms and onion all over the pork. This is going to give it so much amazing flavor.
Step 2 – Second, get a mixing bowl and mix the cream of chicken and cream of mushroom together with the broth and seasonings to make the brown gravy. I like to use a whisk to make sure everything is mixed well.
Step 3 – Next, pour the liquid into the crock pot.
Step 4 – Finally, cover the crock pot and cook the pork chops on low for 6-8 hours. You can also cook on high if you prefer for 3-4 hours. The pork needs to have an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Pork Chops will come out golden brown. Season with salt and pepper and serve.

Recipe Notes
- Crock Pot Recommendation – Most of my recipes are created in a 6 quart crock pot, but I love my 4 quart crock pot for small dishes. Now, if you work away from home, then I suggest you get a programmable crock pot so you can have it cook for the perfect amount of time.
- Crockpot liners – So handy and makes cleanup a breeze.
- Pork Chops – You can use bone in pork chops instead of boneless. I like to use what is on sale or already in the freezer. I would not use the thin pork chops as they will fall apart when serving. We like using the thick pork chops as the meat comes out fork tender.
- Cook Time – Cook time will vary depending on the size of the pork chops and your crock pot. Use a meat thermometer to ensure they are cooked with an internal temperature of 145 degrees.
- Mushroom Gravy – For an even creamier sauce, you can add in heavy cream.
- Seasoning – An onion soup mix packet is full of flavor and can be added in place of chopped onion or onion powder if you have it. You can also add in fresh herbs such as fresh thyme or fresh parsley.
- Broth – Instead of beef broth you can also use chicken broth or chicken stock.

Serving Suggestions
- Mashed potatoes, rice or egg noodles. The rich onion gravy is amazing so you will want something to spoon it over.
- Vegetables- We like to steam broccoli in the microwave. The kids spoon the sauce over it and gobble it up! The sauce is that amazing. Roasted green beans or brussels sprouts are also really delicious.
- Bread- Grab rolls from the bakery or make these easy dinner rolls. The sauce is so amazing that you will want something to cip into it.

Followed the recipe using 1 inch thick boneless pork chops. My family and I felt they turned out wonderful. A keeper recipe. We put it over rice. Everyone requested seconds. The pork chops were so tender you could cut it with a fork. I only cooked them for 3 hrs 45 mins and the temp reached the recommended 145 degrees.
I’m so glad everyone loved them, June! Serving them over rice is perfect for soaking up that gravy. Thanks for sharing the thickness and cooking time you used—that’s helpful for other readers!
