Why you should try this ranch pork chops recipe

If weeknight dinner ideas are the hardest for you to plan for, you’ll love this delicious meal option. The grocery list will only consist of 4 ingredients (including the fresh parsley garnish), which means it won’t break the bank to make.

You’ll also love the quick and easy prep time and cooking time. The baking time may seem shorter; however, this is something you can toss in the crockpot and go. This is also a recipe the whole family can enjoy, down to the kiddos. I highly doubt their will be leftovers, but if so, these make a great next-day meal option.

Recipe Ingredients

Ingredients for ranch pork chops on a table.
  • Pork Chops: Center-cut pork chops work best for this recipe, and if you’re feeding a small family, you’ll want at least 2 pounds.
  • Cream of Chicken Soup: Two cans of soup to ensure the chops are completely covered. You won’t need to add water or milk.
  • Ranch Seasoning: I prefer the Hidden Valley Ranch brand over others but you can use any brand of your choice.
  • Garnish: Fresh parsley adds the perfect touch to these chops and any side dishes you want to pair with these ranch pork chops.

Step Four – Cover and cook chops on HIGH for 3 hours or LOW for 4-5 hours. Remove the pork chops from the slow cooker and mix the sauce well. Serve immediately with your choice of sides and enjoy!

Recipe FAQs

What can I use in replacement of the cream of chicken soup?

Cream of mushroom soup can be used in place of cream of chicken.

What do I do if the sauce is too thick?

If the sauce is too thick, whisk in 3-4 tablespoons of hot chicken stock or water.

How do I store leftover ranch pork chops?

Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days in an airtight container.

Can I use the ranch salad dressing instead of the dry mix packet?

No, dry ranch seasoning is best for ranch pork chops.

Can I use bone in pork chops?

To make serving and eating the chops easier, I recommend using the center cut about one inch thick without the bone.

Can I make this recipe in the oven?

Of course! Follow the recipe, except you will place pork chops in a baking dish (covered with aluminum foil) and bake until the internal temperature is appropriate for eating. Now you’ll have baked ranch pork chops!

    Really Tasty! I’ve tried it twice. I paired it once with rice and another time with egg noddles. It’s great both ways! Super fast to prepare and perfect if you only have 10 minutes before you run out the door. Highly recommend! Thanks

    Stumbled upon this recipe, and boy am I sure glad I did! These were DELICIOUS! I could only fit 5 pork chops in my slow cooker, but it still worked just fine. I feel like it’s pretty forgiving in that regard. The sauce was just divine and the chops were falling apart when I was trying to take them out- YUM! Hubby raved about it and I did too. Thank you so much!

    Love your recipes, never fail to please. Just a head’s up from Toronto based Canadian that dry ranch dressing seasoning mix isn’t available in Canada. Am 60, and have never seen it available in mass market and upscale boutique markets. Any way to add a dressing mix recipe that would be suitable for non U.S. based folks to recipes that invoke the packaged ranch mix for the rest of us please?

      That’s not true! Look in the salad dressing isle. Usually top shelf. You can sometimes find it in the produce section. I’ve purchased many times. Perhaps ask at your grocery store.

        Yep, I’ve been using it here in Alberta for years
