I love these smothered crockpot pork chops. These are such an easy and delicious comfort food. I started by searing my porkchops in a skillet then added them to my crockpot with some gravy mix, a can of gravy, and some beef consommé. Add some veggies like onions and carrots to complete it. This recipe tastes best over rice or mashed potatoes. You can’t beat this comfort dish.
I love a good comfort meal, and these crockpot smothered pork chops are perfect. I love meals like this. There’s nothing better than a crockpot meal in my honest opinion. You can also make as few or as many of these as you’d like.
Equipment You’ll Need
As for equipment, you’ll start by using a skillet. You’ll want to get it very hot to get a good sear on the porkchops. Then, you’ll need a large crockpot. Mine is 7 quarts. A few miscellaneous items you’ll need will be a spoon to stir, some tongs to handle your chops with, and a sharp kitchen knife.
Ingredients You’ll Need
Pork Chops:
I used 3-4 thin bone-in pork chops. This recipe will work for any cut of pork chops.
Onion and Carrots:
I cooked the chops with some slices onions and baby carrots.
Beef Consommé Soup:
I used a can of beef consommé soup. This is like an au jus to me. Not too thick with tons of flavor.
Beef Gravy:
I also used a can of beef gravy.
Au Jus Gravy Mix:
To add just a little more flavor, I added in a packet of au jus gravy mix.
Seasonings:
For seasonings, you’ll need salt, pepper, and Cajun seasoning before searing the pork chops. Then, I added in a tablespoon of sugar to balance out the crockpot flavors.
