What Makes This Recipe a Keeper
- There is no cream soup in this recipe, and it doesn't need it! Butter, chicken broth, and the pork juices give the stuffing all the moisture it needs.
- This pork chop and stuffing recipe is elevated by adding freshly chopped vegetables mixed into the stuffing. It gives the dish a homemade touch you can't get with just the box mix.
- The pork cooks to perfection thanks to the low and slow cooking time; it's tender and goes great with a bite of the stuffing.
- Pork chops and stuffing make this a great fall comfort food dinner without having to make several separate dishes.
The Ingredients
Pork Chops: I use thick, boneless pork chops for this.
Seasonings: Season up those pork chops with salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, garlic, and onion powder.
Stuffing: You will want to grab 2 boxes of pork stove-top stuffing mix.
Vegetables: Carrots, celery, and onion are classic stuffing vegetables that add texture and homemade flavor.
Butter and Broth: To moisten the stove-top stuffing and keep the pork moist, we add butter and chicken broth.
How to Make Slow Cooker Pork Chops and Stuffing
- Add the pork chops and seasonings to the crockpot.
- Chop and add the vegetables.
- Sprinkle on the Stove-top Stuffing.
- Mix the stuffing and vegetables with a spoon and then add the butter and chicken broth.
Tips and Variations
Don't Overcook: This isn't a recipe you'll want to cook all day. It only needs about 5 hours on LOW. Cooking it much longer can dry out the pork chops and cause the stuffing to burn around the edges.
Stuffing Type: This recipe was developed for stove-top stuffing (it's the best-tasting brand in my opinion). You can switch the flavor type, such as using chicken or cornbread flavor instead of pork.
Apples: Add 1-2 diced apples for more fall flavor! They go great with the pork.
How to Serve Pork Chops and Stuffing
Add a Side: Though this is a complete meal, you can add mashed potatoes to make the meal feel even heartier.
Top it Off: Add cranberry sauce for a festive touch and a green vegetable to round things out.
Can I use bone-in pork chops?
Yes, bone-in pork chops work just as well and cook similarly to boneless chops. They may overlap a little more in the slow cooker, but that's perfectly fine.
Do I prepare the Stove Top stuffing first?
No. Add the stuffing mix straight from the box. The chicken broth, melted butter, and juices from the pork chops will moisten it as it cooks.
