Equipment

  • 1 slow cooker
  • measuring cup
  • measuring spoons
  • large skillet

Ingredients

  • 4 center cut bone in pork chops 1 inch thick
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion sliced
  • 8 ounces sliced mushrooms
  • 4 garlic cloves roughly chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups beef stock
  • 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

Instructions

  • Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel.
  • Combine the salt, pepper and smoked paprika. Season both sides of the pork chops.

  • Whisk together the beef stock, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder and Italian seasoning.
  • Pour the sauce over the pork chops and cover.
  • Cook on HIGH for 2 hours or LOW for 3-4 hours.
  • Remove the pork chops from the slow cooker and keep warm.
  • Whisk together the heavy cream and cornstarch. Stir the mixture into the slow cooker.
  • Return the pork chops to the slow cooker, cover and cook for another 20 minutes, or until the gravy has thickened.
  • Serve the pork chops topped with the creamy Dijon mushroom gravy.

Notes

  • This recipe is written for center-cut bone-in pork chops about 1 inch thick.
  • Thick boneless pork chops can be used but may cook faster.
  • Beef broth can be substituted for beef stock.
  • Soy sauce or coconut aminos can be substituted for Worcestershire sauce.
  • Half-and-half can be used instead of heavy cream for a lighter gravy.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2–3 days.
  • Reheat gently in short microwave intervals or in a skillet over medium-low heat.
