The combination of pork chops and beer creates a delicious braising liquid that slowly penetrates the meat during cooking, keeping it moist and flavorful throughout the process.

Ingredients

You’ll need just three simple ingredients:

4 bone-in or boneless pork chops
1 can (12 oz) beer
1 packet onion soup mix

Optional Garnishes

Fresh parsley
Black pepper
Sliced green onions

Kitchen Equipment

Slow cooker (4 to 6 quart)
Measuring cup
Tongs
Serving platter

Step 1: Prepare the Slow Cooker

Start by placing your slow cooker on a stable surface and ensuring the insert is clean and dry.

There is no need to grease the slow cooker because the pork chops will release natural juices as they cook. This helps create a flavorful braising liquid.

Step 2: Arrange the Pork Chops

Place the pork chops in a single layer inside the slow cooker.

If you’re cooking more chops than will fit in one layer, slightly overlap them. Bone-in pork chops often provide extra flavor, but boneless chops work equally well.

Make sure the pork chops are evenly distributed to allow consistent cooking.
