In the heart of the Midwest, where the fields stretch as far as the eye can see, comfort food is more than just a meal—it’s a way of life. This Slow Cooker 4-Ingredient Smothered Pork Chops recipe is a nod to the simple, hearty dishes that have graced our family tables for generations.

Variations & Tips
For a twist, add sliced mushrooms or a chopped onion to the slow cooker for extra flavor. If you prefer a thicker gravy, mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with a little water and stir it into the sauce about 30 minutes before serving. You can also substitute the cream of mushroom soup with cream of chicken soup for a different taste. For those who enjoy a bit of spice, a pinch of red pepper flakes can add a gentle kick to the dish.
