Slow Cooker Creamy Ranch Pork Chops
Slow Cooker Creamy Ranch Pork Chops is another slow cooker meal that is easy and delicious. This comforting dinner recipe will have everyone asking for seconds!
My slow cooker is by far my favorite kitchen tool. I actually have a few slow cookers because I use them so much. They are so convenient and nice when you want to get a head start on dinner before a busy day. This Slow Cooker Creamy Ranch Pork Chops recipe is just that. It couldn’t be easier to make and it’s always a favorite at my house.
I cook a lot of chicken to try and stay healthy, so when my family sees I’m making a pork recipe they get extra excited. haha. Pork is always a great alternative to chicken, but if you prefer chicken you can definitely use chicken breasts in this recipe. These Creamy Ranch Pork Chops are loaded with flavor from the ranch seasoning and soup. It turns into an amazing gravy as it slowly cooks and keeps the pork chops moist and delicious.
WHAT SIDE DISH COULD I SERVE WITH CREAMY RANCH PORK CHOPS?
I like to serve these pork chops with a side of rice and vegetables. I use minute rice for ease and convenience and also serve them with carrots and peas. Broccoli would be another great option or even a green salad.
CAN I USE CHICKEN INSTEAD OF PORK?
Yes! I have made this exact recipe many times with boneless, skinless chicken breasts and it turns out amazing. I always have chicken breasts on hand, so sometimes I use chicken just for the fact I have it and don’t have pork chops.
I DON’T LIKE TO USE CANNED CREAM SOUPS. DO YOU HAVE AN ALTERNATIVE?
Yes I do! I really love my homemade cream of chicken soup recipe. Find the recipe here: HOMEMADE CONDENSED CREAM OF CHICKEN SOUP. You can use this recipe to replace the cream of chicken soup and cream of mushroom soup in this pork chops recipe.

Hello! This recipe sounds amazing! About how long would it take to cook in the oven? Thanks.
Hi Jolene! Yes, you could bake these in a 9×13 inch baking pan at 400 degrees, for 30 minutes. Just make sure they are the thin cut, boneless pork chops. Otherwise they would need to cook longer for thicker, bone-in chops. 🙂
Thanks for that answer because I was wondering the same thing do I need to cover with foil
Yes, I would cover with foil if baking in the oven. 🙂
I make this at least once a week either pork chops or chicken breast .
Can i use cream Of celery instead of cream of chicken soup?
I do this with cream of celery and cream of chicken with herbs! This is our favorite–and my husband won’t eat anything mushroom! We love it! Haven’t tried it with chicken but plan to! Happy cooking!
Hello, I was gonna try this with chicken breast, did you cook the same time as you would the pork chops?
Yes I would cook it the same amount of time.
Do I need to thaw out the pork chops before putting them in crock pot?
Yes. Make sure they are thawed. I personally don’t like to cook frozen meat in the crock pot.
Do I add water/milk to the soup or do I just add it straight out of the can?
Nope, no need to add anything else.
Can i use two cans of cream of mushroom instead of cream of chicken?
Yes 🙂
Yes, you can easily double this recipe. Just make sure you’re using a large 7 quart slow cooker. 🙂
Has anyone made this in an instant pot? How long and what temperature do you use?
Has anybody tried it in their instapot What temperature would you cook it on? Low or high and how long?
Lauren, I have a homemade ranch mix recipe that may work if you have the dried herbs. Here it is:
½ Tablespoon black pepper
2½ Tablespoons dried parsley flakes
1 Tablespoon garlic salt
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
½ Tablespoon garlic powder
1½ Tablespoons dried onion powder
¾ teaspoon dried dill weed
Just mix it all together and use about 3 Tablespoons of this mixture. 🙂
Can I use cream of celery instead?
Yes!
Love this recipe!
We love the condensed mushroom and chicken soup in this recipe!
I have a 1 oz packet of Hidden valley RANCH dip. will this work INSTEAD of the dressing?
Yes the Ranch Dip packets work too!
How long should i cook only 4 chops for?
I would still cook them on high heat for 3 to 4 hours OR 5 to 6 hours on low.
Do you use condensed cream soups or ready to eat soups?
I use the condensed cream soups in this recipe 🙂
Can I use an Italian seasoning packet instead of ranch?
Yes 🙂
When I made this the pork was dry. Any tips on how to keep your pork moist? Thicker cut? Maybe?
Julie, you could use thicker chops for sure!
My family loves when I make this meal. We usually cook until pork chops are falling apart and pour it over homemade mashed potatoes! Yum!
I’ve used actual ranch. It tasted just fine
I made this recipe but accidentally had purchased “spicy” ranch dressing mix. Also used 2 cans of “cream of chicken and mushroom” soup. Wow was it good. Not really spicy but delicious. I’m adding this to my recipes for sure. Thank you! 🙂
I’m going to be trying this for the first time tomorrow. I have miniature yellow potatoes and baby carrots. Do you think these would make a good addition to the bottom of the dish or just leave them out?
I think they would be delicious additions to this recipe!
Can’t wait to try this. Would it be okay to brown the pork chops a little first?
Yes you can absolutely brown them first! 🙂
I like to use pork tenderloin cut into pieces. Not as dry as pork chops.
