Slow Cooker Creamy Ranch Pork Chops and Potatoes Recipe
I love quick and easy slow cooker meals and this is seriously as easy as it gets.
Elyse shared a Ranch Pork Roast recipe a long time ago and so I modified it to what I had available in my pantry and this dish was born!
The pork chops literally fell apart when you cut into them and the extra sauce made a perfect gravy.
This is a good recipe for Sunday dinner.

    This recipe is sooooo delicious. It cooked a lot faster than 4 hrs for me, which was good because it smelled so good my family couldn't wait to eat it!

    Have you tried the recipe with chicken? I am going to try that next.

      my Crockpot died on me and fir reasons unknown, I have neglected to buy a new one... im going to, if I don't keep forgetting. I do Crockpot cooking in a large pot, I set the stove top to low and cover it tightly. I get the same results :) the only difference, you sometimes have to stir a little more often

    Can I make a freezer meal out of this by throwing everything together and freezing it in a bag? And then eventually thawing it to throw it in the crockpot?

      I know this might be hard to fathom, but recipes that involve so few ingredients - particularly since this one involves two very common prepared foods to use in a crock pot - are often arrived at independently. Something similar to this was probably created decades ago, not by picky palate. Perhaps get off your internet high horse. The source that THIS PARTICULAR blogger adapted this recipe from was cited. Your baseless accusations are unhelpful. Aside from that, after googling the recipe you refer to, this recipe is in fact different enough from picky palate's to be considered an unique creation.

    Hi there! Thanks so much for sharing this AND the homemade versions of the soup and dressing mixes! I do have a question: I know flour sometimes breaks down over time in a crock. Has anyone tried making this with the homemade soup mix, and can you add the soup at the beginning of the recipe as you would canned? It we definitely be great if so, but I could also stir it in later if needed. Just wondering if anyone has tried it and how it worked. Thanks so much and I love your site!

    I'm so glad I found this on Pinterest! I usually just use cream of mushroom soup, but the cream of chx and ranch was really good! I used one packet of ranch seasoning and one of the homemade version. Pork chops were tender and delish. This had my place smelling so good while it cooked and I couldn't wait to eat!

      The recipe says potatoes should be cut into big pieces- quarters then? I was really excited about making this dish but it turned out as a disaster for me :(

      Sorry it didn't turn out as what you were hoping. We cut the potato into about 8 pieces.

      It sounds like you didn't cook the dish long enough. I thought the pork was amazing but you do have to monitor the cooking time. The pork temperature will register at 165º but still seem tough. During the last hour of cooking the meat will become tender and potatoes will finish cooking. Every slow cooker is a bit different, try increasing the cook time an hour.

    I made this last night for dinner. I did end up cooking it longer because the potatoes were not done. My kids were not happy about waiting past regular dinner time. However, it was so yummy! I added baby carrots and a little chicken broth as well. It was worth the wait. I will just start earlier or cook on high for the same time as was suggested for low setting.

    I've been told not to freeze uncooked potatoes as they don't freeze well. And so.... I'm wondering the same as LavenderDiamond above.... Can I freeze this in a freezer bag and cook in a crockpot later?

      We have never made this as a freezer meal, but it should work great. Just make it and stick in a freezer bag. Then thaw and cook thoroughly.

    I put this in my crock pot this morning. I just panicked a little because I just read that you put your potatoes on bottom. My pork chops are on bottom and potatoes on top. Hopefully it turns out ok!

    The flavor is good,though a little too salty and I dont get a distinct ranchy flavor even with two packets. Also, next time I may just use 1 can of soup, I am a saucy girl but I feel like it was a lot.

    I tried this today but used one can mushroom soup and one chicken, also put onions one top and a lil cayenne pepper. Will see how it goes. Also just one pack ranch.

    Can you put the potatoes on the top instead? I have already added the pork chops with the soup mixture, and forgot to do the potatoes first.

      Hi Nancy, you should be fine. Since the potatoes are cut into large pieces, you could kind of stir it around a little so some of them go under the pork chops. Hope this helps!! Have a great day!

      The dry ranch dressing packets come in 1 ounce packets. So you will need 2 of them for this recipe.
