Smothered Pork Chops

I generally try to remove processed foods from cooking however, this one is super easy and quick.

4 Bone-in pork chops*
1 envelope onion soup mix
14 oz. chicken broth ( I use the low sodium)
1 can cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup
1 pkg brown gravy
1 tsp garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
3 Tbsp corn starch
3 Tbsp cold water
Most importantly: CROCK POT LINER

Use crock pot liner to line said crock pot ~ you are welcome.

Put pork chops in crock pot keeping them spaced as much as possible; sprinkle with garlic powder, salt and pepper.  I use VERY little salt because of the all the other processed stuff that has tons of salt in it. 

Mix Chicken broth, soup, and gravy mix in a separate bowl then pour over chops. 

Cook on high 4 hours or low 6 hours.

30 minutes before serving remove the chops, mix the water and corn starch then add to the gravy stirring to mix.  Add chops back in and let cook for another 30 minutes.

Serve over rice or mashed potatoes.  Would be really good over noodles too.

*I have tried boneless chops and they were dry and NOT good.  The bone does wonders.  I have used the boneless successfully but you have to find super thick cuts and they are sometimes hard to find.
