Crock Pot Smothered Pork Chops Recipes

Steps:

• Pat pork chops dry and place into a slow cooker. Add mushroom soup, onions, sliced mushrooms, and garlic powder.
• Cook on Low for 8 hours or High for 4 hours, until pork chops are cooked through. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Spray 4-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. Pat pork chops dry with paper towels; season both sides with pepper and salt.
• Heat 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add bacon; cook and stir 6 to 8 minutes or until browned. Using slotted spoon, transfer bacon to slow cooker. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of bacon fat; reserving remaining fat for another use, or discard. Increase heat to medium-high; add pork chops to bacon drippings in skillet. Cook 3 to 5 minutes on each side or until browned. Transfer to slow cooker and stand pork chops up against sides of slow cooker, bone side down.
• Add onions to skillet. Cook and stir 3 to 5 minutes, or until softened. Add garlic; cook and stir 30 seconds. Transfer to slow cooker. Add broth, Worcestershire sauce and bay leaves. Cover; cook on Low heat setting 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until pork chops are just cook through (at least 145°F in center, but still moist.)
• Remove pork chops; cover with foil to keep warm. Remove bay leaves and discard. Increase slow cooker to High heat setting.
• In small bowl, beat cornstarch, vinegar and water with whisk. Stir into liquid in slow cooker. Cover; cook 15 to 20 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
• Ladle sauce over pork chops; serve immediately.

Steps:

• Sprinkle chops with salt, pepper, and paprika. Heat oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat. Lightly brown chops (about 5 minutes per side) and set aside.
• Add wine to the skillet and deglaze, scraping the skillet to remove any bits. Turn off heat.
• Prepare the gravy mix according the the package directions and set aside.
• Place one layer of onions in the bottom of the crock pot.
• Place 3 pork chops over the onions.
• Place 1/2 of the mushrooms over the pork chops.
• Sprinkle with 1/2 of the thyme and savory.
• Add another layer of onions.
• Layer the remaining pork chops and sprinkle them with the remaining thyme, savory, and garlic.
• Place bay leaf on top.
• Place the remaining mushrooms on top of that.
• Cover with a layer of remaining onion slices.
• Pour the wine that was used to deglaze the pan over the top.
• Pour the brown gravy over that.
• Cook for 3 1/2 hours on high or 6-7 hours on low.
• Delicious served with mashed potatoes.

Steps:

• On a plate, combine flour, salt and pepper and dredge pork in mixture, coating both sides.
• In a nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat and add pork in batches and brown both sides; transfer to slow cooker when done.
• Add onions to pan, adding more oil if necessary, and cook, stirring until softened.
• Add garlic and cook, stirring for 1 minute.
• Stir in chili sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce and mustard; bring to a boil.
• Pour sauce over chops.
• Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or cook on high for 2-2 1/2 hours, until meat is tender.

Steps:

• Layer the pork and onion in a 3 1/2-quart slow cooker. Stir the soups in a small bowl. Pour the soup mixture over all. Cover and cook on LOW for 8 to 9 hours* or until the pork is fork-tender. Serve the pork and sauce with the rice.

Steps:

• Fry bacon in large skillet over medium heat until lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper towels, leaving fat in pan. Refrigerate bacon.
• Heat fat over high heat until smoking. Meanwhile, pat pork chops dry with paper towels and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook 3 chops until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer chops to slow cooker. Repeat with remaining chops and transfer to slow cooker.
• Pour off all but 1 teaspoon fat from skillet; add onions, 1 teaspoon brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 cup water to skillet. Scrape browned bits from pan bottom and cook over medium high heat until onions are soft, about 6 minutes. Stir in garlic and thyme and cook 30 seconds longer. Pour onion mixture over chops in slow cooker. Add broth, soy sauce and remaining 1 Tablespoon brown sugar to skillet, bring to boil and add bay leaves. Pour mixture over onions in slow cooker.
• Cover slow cooker and cook on low until pork is very tender, about 8 hours.
• When ready to serve, reheat bacon in large saucepan until crisp and transfer to small bowl. Remove chops to serving platter, discard bay leaves and pour liquid through mesh strainer into saucepan. Transfer solids to blender with 1 cup liquid and blend until smooth. Stir back into remaining liquid in saucepan. Mix cornstarch and remaining 2 Tablespoons water together in small bowl and stir into sauce. Cook over medium heat until thickened, about 8 minutes. Add vinegar, season with salt and pepper, pour over chops, and sprinkle with bacon and parsley. Serve.

Steps:

• Cut each steak into 2 or 3 pieces and trim excess fat.
• Pour one can of tomatoes into the bottom of a 6-7qt Crockpot. Top with 1/3 of each of the ingredients, ending with a layer made from half the pork steak pieces.
• Make another layer of 1/3 of everything, ending with the rest of the pork steaks.
• Finish with the remaining ingredients.
• Cook on low for 6-8 hours.
• Remove pork steak pieces carefully (they will probably break up so tongs will work better than a fork).
• Use a slotted spoon to scoop out the veggies and serve them over pasta or rice.
• Top with Parmesan.
• Tip: If you chill the flavorful juices to remove the fat you'll have a delicious starter for soup.
• Note: I do not recommend using an extra-lean cut such as boneless pork loin for this. Extra lean meat tends to dry out in long cooking even when submerged in liquid this way.
• Note: This should be just as good made with beef chuck or chicken thighs.
