If you are looking for a delicious recipe you can throw together in less than two minutes, then look no further! That is exactly what this Crock Pot Lemon Pepper Pork Chops recipe is!
Aunt Lou here.
I had come across a monster pack of assorted pork loin chops on Manager’s Special (aka freeze or use now or forever hold your peace) so I needed to figure out what I was going to make pretty quick. I could have frozen them, but I hate trying to thaw out a huge pack of meat. I’d rather just use it up right away.
Crock Pot Lemon Pepper Pork Chops
So for the first half of my pack of chops, I made Crock Pot Pork Chop Stuffing. I had three huge chops left and needed to make something with what I had on hand. I got to thinkin’ back of some of my favorite recipes and Crock Pot Lemon Pepper Chicken came to mind…so I thought, why not try it with pork chops! I love a simple recipe that has delicious flavor, don’t you?!
- 1-2 lbs bone-in pork chops
- lemon pepper seasoning
-
Cover the bottom of crock pot with a layer of pork chops only one deep
-
Sprinkle the layer liberally with lemon pepper seasoning
-
Place any remaining pork chops on top and sprinkle liberally with seasoning
-
Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours or high for 3½ - 4 hours
Slow Cooker Recommendation
For this delicious Crock Pot Lemon Pepper Pork Chops recipe, I used my Travel Crock Pot. You can use your favorite 4-6 quart crock pot. If you are making a smaller amount of chops, then you can use a smaller crock pot and vice versa, more pork chops will work well in a larger crock pot. This is the perfect recipe to tailor to your needs!

Typically when I do crock pot pork chops, I add some sort of soup (either cheese soup, or mushroom soup) with just a little bit of milk for “sauce”. This recipe seems like it will dry out the pork chops with nothing in there – was there any issues with this?
Hi Jim!
It didn’t dry out for me. The slow cooker is really good about cooking meats, particularly those with bone-in, well in their own juices. With that said, it is important to not overcook, so if you have a hot slow cooker, watch it closely the first time so that you know how long your slow cooker needs to cook them. If you are using boneless chops, I would recommend this recipe: http://www.recipesthatcrock.com/crock-pot-pork-chop-stuffing/. Enjoy!

I quiet like the sound of this recipe but would ask you and Sue Bond what is and where can lemon pepper be bought in the UK?
Hi Anita!
Lemon Pepper seasoning is available in most US grocery stores in the spice section. If your grocery store does not have it, I found this on Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Schwartz-Lemon-Pepper-55-g/dp/B00J4LCCSE
Enjoy!

Hi! I was wondering if this would work with Boneless Chops? It really does sound tasty…easy, too 🙂 Thank you!
Hi Elizabeth!
This recipe works best with bone-in chops since you aren’t adding any other liquid to your crock pot. If you already have boneless chops and are looking for a recipe, I’ll put some ideas below of some of my favorites with boneless. Enjoy!
