Helpful Ingredient Tips
- Pork Chops – We actually raise our own homegrown pork that is to die for. Because you’re cutting these pork chops into small pieces, it doesn’t matter if you use boneless or bone-in pork chops.
- Butter
- Flour – You can use regular flour or gluten free flour to make the gravy.
- Chicken Broth – I love to use chicken broth because it brings so much flavor to the gravy.
- Cream Cheese – For this recipe, I wanted a thick gravy that melted in your mouth. Adding the cream cheese thickened the gravy but also enhanced the richness of it. I used full fat cream cheese.
- Red or Yellow Potatoes – I have used both these kinds of potatoes, and they both are so good. In this picture, I used yellow potatoes for their creaminess and flavor.
- Shredded Cheddar Cheese – At the end, I decided to smother this with shredded cheese and you guys, it was so good! But honestly, doesn’t adding cheese make everything better?

Tools You’ll Need
How to Make Slow Cooker Creamy Pork Chops & Potatoes
- Cut the pork chops into bite-sized pieces.
- Place the pork pieces in a gallon-sized Ziploc bag and add the dry seasonings. Seal the bag and toss until the pork is evenly coated.
- Cut the potatoes into thin slices.
- Spray the bottom of the slow cooker with cooking spray, then arrange the potatoes in an even layer on the bottom.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Sprinkle in the flour and whisk until well combined to create a roux. Cook for 1–2 minutes, until the roux turns a light golden brown.
- Slowly pour in the chicken broth while whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Continue cooking and stirring until the gravy begins to thicken.
- Remove the gravy from the heat and stir in the cream cheese until completely melted and smooth.
- Add the seasoned pork chops over the potatoes, then pour the creamy gravy evenly over the top.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 3–4 hours, or until the pork is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
- Sprinkle generously with shredded cheese, cover for a few minutes to allow the cheese to melt, then serve warm and enjoy!
Storage and Reheating
Storage
Store leftover Creamy Pork Chops and Potatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3–4 days.
Reheating
Reheat individual portions in the microwave in 30–60 second intervals, stirring the potatoes and sauce between intervals, until heated through. You can also reheat larger portions in a covered skillet over medium-low heat. If the sauce has thickened, add a small splash of chicken broth or milk while reheating to bring it back to a creamy consistency.
