Slow Cooker Pigs in a Cornfield is corn on the cob, pork and even potatoes cooked together for an easy hearty meal.
This recipe is so unique! Pork chops can be made in so many variations, also try my pork chop cacciatore or my pork chops and onions recipe.
This recipe Slow Cooker Pigs in a Cornfield is a request from a gentleman named Buford, a fan from my YouTube channel. Before he suggested this recipe, I had not heard of this recipe before.
I was almost nervous to search for it. After I did a little research, I knew that this recipe would cook up great in the slow cooker. Thank you, Buford, for suggesting I try this.
How to make Pigs in a Cornfield:
The recipe starts with frozen halves of corn on the cob.
Then I add potatoes and onion in between.
Then I topped that with pork chops and bacon.
A mixture of cream of mushroom soup, milk and seasonings goes over everything in the pot.
7 hours later and this is what the meal looks like.
The recipe isn’t easy on the eyes, but sure tastes good!

Should I sear the port chops first before putting in crockpot to keep juices in
Payge says
I’m trying out this recipe but am a lil short on time. Can I flip it over to high after a few hours to speed up cooking?
Sarah Olson says
Yes, that would work fine.
Keith says
Made this today and thought it was fantastic!!!! One tweak I’ll do next time is season the potatoes and the chops just for a little flavor. Thanks for the recipe and definitely will make again.
Sarah Olson says
Glad you liked it Keith. Thank you for the tip 🙂

Could you use chicken in this recipe? It looks so delicious. Thanks
Trish Keller says
Actually I think chicken sounds better
Suzette Dake says
Can I use frozen corn not on the cob. And I can how much
Sarah Olson says
I think a bag would work fine, a few cups.
Mary Ann Hovan says
Can anyone suggest anything other than mushroom soup? Not a favorite of mine
Patricia Morris Sharp says
My daughter doesn’t like mushrooms but love green bean casserole so I use Cream of celery soup in it so I bet that would work here too
Anonymous says
What about cream of celery, cream of chicken soup?
Karen Johnson says
Maybe use cream celery or chicken soup,,,I might even try a pack of country gravy,,,
Sarah Olson says
cream of celery or onion if you can find it.
Jackie Winters says
How can it serve six when there are only four pork chops?
Sarah Olson says
It will only serve 4 if you want an entire chop. 6 if you split them up.
Jo Jo Beans says
Also waiting for answers to the previous questions. Boneless or bone-in chops? Can I use fresh corn instead of frozen???
Hope says
Looks amazing, have two questions, 1. Have you tested this recipe with fresh corn, and 2. If I don’t want to use canned soup, would a white sauce with sauteed mushrooms work as well?
Sarah Olson says
I’m unsure about the fresh corn. But bone in chops should work fine!

William Kirk says
Will fresh corn be ok to substitute for frozen?
Sarah Olson says
I have not tried yet. If anyone tries this with fresh corn, please give us an update on how it worked.
Kathleen says
OMG I’m so making this soon as we get to the store to get what I need. It looks like you used boneless chops, am I correct? Just signed up and am excited to get more. Thanks
Sarah Olson says
Yes, boneless is what I used, but really any pork chop will work fine.
Mary says
Can you convert this to an instant pot recipe?
Sarah Olson says
At this time, I do not have time to test every recipe with a pressure cooker. Sorry!

On the Instant Pot. Just press your slow cook button until you get it to the low setting.
