I have made this every week since I found it. I am very particular about how protein is cooked and found these to be so yummy. I do not use an onion there's enough with the soup and soup mix and I think you could probably omit one of those. I also add cut up potatoes to the mix. I cut them up instead of using small potatoes because they get infused with the flavor better.

@Lali1 @Thanks, most of the pork these days comes out dry. This looks like it won't do this. I'd like to add some fresh mushrooms to it.

I have made this many times and tweak it by not using cream of onion soup, instead cream of mushroom and carmelize the onion first....so good! Smiley Happy

      This was one of the first recipes I ever cooked.....as a new wife...so many years ago!!  But we don't really like onions, so I use cream of mushroom soup and add sliced mushrooms!!

Oh no they are moist and fall apart. I think you can add all kinds of things to this recipe.

I use cream of whatever soup. Last week I forgot the cream of soup so I had to make some. No matter how I make this it's the chops that are the star.

That sounds good. I'll have to try that.

this sounds good, although i will substitute cream of chicken or cream of celery in place of the cream of mushroom.

 

will probably also use some chicken stock instead of the water.

 

i agree with the poster who said that pork chops these days tend to be quite dry. i do think they trim them too much also.....they really do need a bit of fat on them to keep them more moist.

After years of attempting to cook pork chops in the slow cooker, I finally figured out what works best for me. 

 

I buy the thickest chops I can find and cook them for 4 hours on low adding different BBQ sauces etc.  I can't get thin chops to do anything but fall apart in the slow cooker.

@Lali1 I have used the mushroom soup with water on pounded braised flank steak with carmelized onions and fresh mushrooms and garlic in a large cast iron skillet and baked for about 1 1/2 hours to tenderize.

 

It was always a favorite with our sons, and of course, as a bonus, loaded with iron.
