Slow Cooker Pork Chops with Stuffing Crust

Ingredients

  • 4–6 pork chops (boneless or bone-in, about ¾–1 inch thick)

  • 1 box (6 oz) stuffing mix (Stove Top style)

  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup (or cream of chicken)

  • ½ cup chicken broth

  • ¼ cup sour cream (optional, extra creamy)

  • 2 tbsp melted butter

  • ½ tsp garlic powder

  • ½ tsp black pepper

  • Optional: sliced onions or mushrooms for the bottom layer


Instructions

1) Layer the Crockpot

  1. Lightly grease the slow cooker.

  2. Add sliced onions/mushrooms if using.

  3. Lay pork chops in an even layer.

2) Mix the Sauce

In a bowl, whisk together:

  • cream of mushroom soup

  • chicken broth

  • garlic powder

  • black pepper

  • sour cream (if using)

Pour sauce over the pork chops.

3) Add the Stuffing Crust

  1. Sprinkle dry stuffing mix evenly over the top.

  2. Drizzle melted butter over the stuffing (this helps it taste buttery and rich).

4) Cook

  • LOW: 5–6 hours

  • HIGH: 2½–3½ hours

Cook until pork is tender (safe internal temp 145°F, but slow cooker usually takes it higher and tender).

5) Serve

Spoon stuffing over pork chops and serve with the creamy gravy from the bottom.
