Today I could totally go for these slow cooker pork chops and mashed potatoes.

I just was out of town in Utah with a bunch of lovely, talented food bloggers for a relaxing, inspirational and food-loaded weekend. Needles to say, I’m exhausted (and full). So I know today I will be turning to my slow cooker for making dinner. Do you feel the same after you travel? I’m like pretty close to falling over. Thank goodness somebody invented the slow cooker. amiright?

See! I wasn’t lying that I was stepping up my slow cooker game. Yes, I’m becoming one with my S-C and I brought the goods with this pork chop dinner. It’s so good that my high schooler brought leftovers to school to eat at lunch the next day. MY HIGH SCHOOLER!!

I bought these gorgeous top loin chops at my local butcher. The butcher butterflied them to obviously make them bigger, but this also means there was more surface area for browning.

seared pork chops in slow cooker

Whisk together the flour, ground mustard, all purpose seasoning, garlic powder and black pepper. Dredge the pork chops in the flour mixture, shake off the excess and transfer to a clean plate.

Heat up a large cast iron skillet on medium to medium-high heat. Add the bacon grease and sear the pork chops for 2 to 3 minutes per side. This will get them nicely golden brown. Then just add them directly into the slow cooker.

Whisk the remaining flour mixture into a liquid measuring cup with the broth. Still, so easy!

Add herbs

Simply pour the gravy mixture over top and sprinkled the fresh parsley and thyme over top. I’m thinking rosemary would be great in here too!

My family loves lumpy mashed potatoes but not lumpy gravy, so I poured it through my gravy separator -just to be safe. Totally optional, as you know.
