Ingredients
  

bone-in pork chops
  • 6 bone-in pork chops Use 6 chops (bone-in) for maximum tenderness.
salt and pepper
  • 1 salt and pepper Season to taste on both sides of the pork.
ranch seasoning mix
  • 1 oz ranch seasoning mix One packet (1 oz).
cream of chicken soup
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
chicken broth
  • 1 cup chicken broth
cream cheese
  • 8 oz cream cheese Cube for easier melting.
butter
  • 2 tbsp butter
mashed potatoes
  • 1 mashed potatoes For serving.
fresh chives
  • 1 fresh chives For garnish.

Equipment

  • 1 slow cooker

Method
 

Season and layer in the slow cooker
  1. Season the bone-in pork chops with salt and pepper, then place them in the slow cooker.
  2. Whisk the ranch seasoning mix, cream of chicken soup, and chicken broth together until smooth, then pour the mixture over the pork chops.
  3. Scatter the cream cheese cubes and dot the butter on top of the pork chops so they sit in the sauce.
Cook until tender and creamy
  1. Cook on Low for 6–7 hours (or on High for 3–4 hours) until the pork is tender and the sauce looks creamy and thick around the edges.
Finish and serve
  1. Stir the sauce well to combine the melted cream cheese until it turns velvety and evenly ranchy.
  2. Serve the pork chops over mashed potatoes, spooning the creamy ranch sauce generously on top, and garnish with fresh chives.

Notes

Pro tip: cube the cream cheese and place it on top so it melts slowly and thickens the sauce instead of clumping. Refrigerate leftovers in a sealed container for up to 3–4 days; reheat gently in the microwave or on the stove with a splash of chicken broth if needed. Freezing works best for the pork and sauce only (freeze up to 2–3 months), then thaw in the fridge and reheat until hot. For a dairy-light swap, use reduced-fat cream cheese and a low-sodium cream of chicken soup to cut richness while keeping the creamy texture.
