Slow Cooker Pork Chops with Gravy

Steps

1. Place the pork chops in the bottom of the crock pot.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the can of cream of chicken soup and the package of pork gravy mix.
3. Add 1 teaspoon of black pepper and 1 cup of chicken broth to the mixture.
4. Whisk all ingredients together until the powder from the gravy mix is completely dissolved and incorporated.
5. Pour the prepared sauce over the pork chops in the crock pot, ensuring you leave the lid on.
6. Cook on low for approximately 4 to 5 hours (or according to recipe instructions of 6-8 hours on low/3-4 on high), checking with a meat thermometer until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F.
7. Once cooked, switch the multi-cook device to the sauté or sear function.
8. In a separate small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of corn starch with a little bit of water until fully dissolved (this is the slurry).
9. Pour the cornstarch slurry into the crock pot and stir it into all the ingredients.
10. Let the mixture cook on the sauté setting for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency. If not using a multi-cook device, switch the slow cooker to high heat with the lid off and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes to thicken.
