This recipe calls for boneless pork loin chops, but bone-in will work as well. Look for pork chops that are least 1-1\/2 inches thick. Thinner pork chops are more likely to overcook.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chicken broth:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-chicken-broth-brands\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-chicken-broth-brands\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">Chicken broth<\/a> provides moisture for the pork chops and lends a savory flavor to the gravy you&#8217;ll make with the remaining cooking juices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Make the seasoned flour<\/h3>\n<p>In a shallow bowl, combine 1\/4 cup flour, ground mustard, garlic pepper and seasoned salt.

Freeze for up to three months. To reheat the pork chops, thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Then cook in a 350\u00b0 oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until a thermometer inserted into the center of the pork chops registers 145\u00b0.<\/p>\n<h2>Slow-Cooker Pork Chops Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1940474\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Slow-Cooker-Pork-Chops_FT23_32059_EC_111023_2-SS-Edit.jpg?fit=700%2C467\" alt=\"Slow Cooker Pork Chops Ft23 32059 Ec 111023 2 Ss Edit\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Can you use frozen pork chops in the slow cooker?<\/h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s never safe to cook <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/frozen-meat-in-crockpot\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/frozen-meat-in-crockpot\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">frozen meat in the slow cooker<\/a>. As its name implies, a slow cooker takes a long time to reach its max cooking temperature (whether set to low or high), which means the meat can stay in the &#8220;danger zone&#8221; too long, potentially allowing for the growth of harmful bacteria. Always thaw your meat before cooking it in a slow cooker.<\/p>\n<h3>What can you do if the pork chops aren&#8217;t tender?<\/h3>\n<p>Pork chops are notoriously easy to overcook. Your best bet is to prevent this by checking the temperature and removing the pork chops from the slow cooker as soon as they reach an internal temperature of 145\u00b0. Once the pork chops are tough there really is no going back.

I do find browning any meat seals in the flavors as opposed to dropping it right in the pot, and it takes just a few minutes with chops.  Th odd thing was, after trying twice, the crock pot simply did not produce the level of tenderness I expected.  I ended up placing them in an instant pot for a short period of time and they were perfect when they came out.  I could have used more spices, and I did increase the amount of them slightly on the second attempt, which worked fine for our taste.  I used concentrated Campbell's chicken broth to give it more flavor, which I do with most broth when it is required.  The gravy was perfect and delicious.  If you know your tastes, adjust accordingly and check your meat before you decide to serve it.  It probably would have worked if it had cooked longer in the crock pot but I like to follow the recipe so I can see how it turns out.

I do agree with the need for potatoes, Kat926.  I don't use a recipe for my pork chops.  I put a layer of cut-up sweet potatoes in the crockpot.  After browning 4 double-thick pork chops, I place them on top of the potatoes.  Then I add a jar of unsweetened applesauce and a jar of any kind of sugar-free BBQ sauce.  And, in my experience - or in my crockpot, they definitely need to cook longer than 2 to 3 hours.  I cook on high for about 1 1\/2 to 2 hours, then on low for another 4 or 5 hours.  Moist and fork-tender every time!<\/p>","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":4,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2023-09-12","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"local"},"reviewBody":"<p>Made these today.

It\u2019s not a dump meal, so be prepared for some prep time, and don\u2019t skip browning the chops, because it\u2019s a very important step.  I do have to agree with the others who say it\u2019s pretty bland, as written, though. The second time I made this recipe, i took the other reviews into consideration...so I used salt and pepper to directly season the chops, and I doubled the seasonings (season salt, mustard, garlic pepper) in the flour dredge-which makes for tastier chops AND gravy. Another hint...I slice maybe 1\/3 to 1\/2 of a small onion and place the the rings in the bottom of the crockpot, before I put the browned pork chops in. The onion adds a nice, mild  flavor. Also, depending on my mood, I will sub out about 1\/4c to 1\/3c of the 14.5oz broth with sherry or white wine, whatever I have on hand. It adds a depth of flavor that\u2019s nice, on occasion, especially if you\u2019re serving company, but it\u2019s still great if you skip the wine. I make this with garlic mashed potatoes and a green veggie, and the gravy is perfect with the potatoes, although in a pinch, rice will work too. Although I\u2019ve made this my own to a large extent, the basic ingredients and methods are fantastic. Amp it up and bit and you\u2019ve got a 5-Star dish!","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":4,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2020-04-05","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"RedAnchor"},"reviewBody":"Made this for my husband who doesn't really like pork chops because he says they always turn out dry.
