Crockpot Ranch Pork Chops and Potatoes is a flavorful, one-pot comfort meal featuring tender pork chops and creamy potatoes coated in a rich ranch seasoning mix. Perfect for busy weeknights or a hearty family dinner.
Wash and quarter the red potatoes for uniform sizes. If using bone-in pork chops, account for slightly longer cooking time.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with a splash of olive oil. Sear the pork chops for 2–3 minutes per side until golden-brown. Set aside.
In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, dry ranch seasoning, and apple cider vinegar until well combined.
Place potatoes in an even layer at the bottom of the slow cooker. Arrange pork chops on top. Drizzle the ranch seasoning mixture over everything, tossing gently to coat.
Scatter cubed butter over the pork chops and potatoes. It will melt during cooking, enriching the dish.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 3 hours or low for 5–6 hours, until the pork chops are tender (at least 145°F) and the potatoes are cooked through.
After cooking, taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Gently stir before serving.
Notes
For extra flavor, add sliced onions or garlic to the slow cooker. Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours and eat within 3 to 4 days; reheat in the microwave or oven to 165°F.
