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!

I made this tonight and it was a 10! I did season the potatoes and the chops (also used bone in chops) very well and cooked it exactly 7hrs without lifting the lid like it said. The chops were fall off the bone tender, the potatoes were perfectly cooked, and everything was seasoned well and delicious! Hubs said it was a 20/10! It will definitely be a regular monthly in this house.
Wouldn’t the corn be mushy from being in the slow cooker for 7 hrs?
No, just as a can of corn in a chili doesn’t get mushy. And these start out frozen.
So yummy hubby kinda picky husband it for 2 days
What?
Food was good. Husband picky. Husband ate it for 2 days.
I will be trying a variation on this. In the household there are non-pork eaters, so chicken will be used. Also will be adding carrots.
And wondering if topping it with biscuits for the last hour would work? Hmm…may have to make this several times!
The biscuits may be more like dumplings.
We made this last night..had to add some seasoning and chicken broth because it just tasted like cream of mushroom soup. We shredded the pork chops and are gonna add some cream to it and serve it over egg noodles tonight. It was good but needed doctoring
Want to make this , looks great. Any advice on how to make this with less sodium? Maybe some sort of substitute for the second can ? Thanks !! 🙂
Hi, I know the soup can be found in lower sodium (maybe called healthy choice?). Though pork has SO much sodium. May be better to use chicken. Sorry I’m not much help.
Use chicken instead of pork.
This is a great recipe. Simple. Easy. Delicious.
Making it today!!
Let me know how you like it!
Been using stuffed pork chops I get from the meat market. They are the bomb dot com!!! LoL
such a great idea!
So I’m going to be making this on Sunday And the last time I tried to do potatoes in the crockpot they still came out a little raw has anybody had a problem with this recipe let me know please
Yes! I’m cooking now and after 7 hrs still a bit raw. What did you do?
It’s not raw, pork often stays pink in the slow cooker. Check the temprature.
Looks yummy!
While the flavor of the meal was good, my pork loins were tough. I was very surprised. they were also dry as if they were very overcooked.
I followed the recipe exactly even warming my crock pot before I put the ingredients in.
I must say I’m pretty sad. I thought for sure that pork would be so tender I could cut it with a fork. As it is I had trouble cutting it with a knife.
Thanks
Hey! This recipe is in my slow cooker as I type. I added a bag of rainbow baby carrots – should I increase cooking time to 8 hours?
I followed this recipe exactly and my pork chops were still pink after cooking on low for 7 hours. Dinner plans are ruined.
Are they shreddable and up to temperature? If the potatoes were done, the pork is done. Pork chops in the slow cooker can look pink after cooking. If they aren’t hot and shreddable then you need a new slow cooker. 🙂
I know , what you will say already. I didn’t have pork chops so I used chicken breasts. I seasoned them and browned them before adding them . It was so good
Thanks for letting me know how chicken works with this recipe!
