The reviewer gave this recipe 4 stars. This recipe averages a 3.52 star rating.
Reviewed: Jul. 31, 2008
I read the other reviews and seasoned the pork chops with some garlic grilling seasonings and then browned the pork chops and onions in some olive oil. I put the chops and onions into the crockpot and then mixed 1 can of cream of chicken soup and 3/4 bottle of MGD along with about 2tbl bbq sauce, garlic powder and salt/pepper in a bowl before pouring it in. I cooked it on low for about 6 hours and when I checked it the chops were falling apart. I had to hold the dinner until the next night and put the whole crockpot in the fridge. My husband loved them, but did say I could cut back a bit on the beer. The next day my in-laws had the leftover pork chops for lunch and loved them! I agree that the original recipe was a good base to add to and made it into a 4/5 star recipe!

I took other reviewer's advice and I made a variation of this meal. It was super simple and my family ate every bite, which was shockiing! One of my brothers even said he doesnt like pork chops, but he ate 1.5 chops. What I did was I carmelized one large white onion and put that in a large roasting pan. Then in the same frying pan that I used for the onions I browned the 6 large butterfly pork chops that I had. I seasonsed them with S&P, garlic powder & onion powder. I then placed them also into the large roasting pan. I then put a can of reduced sodium cream of mushroom soup, can of cream of mushroom w/roasted garlic soup, and a bottle of good wheat ale beer (could reduce amount of beer if you want the sauce thicker). I then used the sauce to get all the good stuff off the frying pan and then poured that over my chops. I then covered them lightly with foil and placed them in an oven at 325 for 1 hour, reduced the heat to 300, flipped the chops and left them uncovered while I made the rest of the meal. Everyone loved them and they turned out great. Also, great plus, super easy to make and they taste like they took you all day.

I thought this was really good. However, I did not fix in the slow cooker. I put sliced onions in the bottom of a casserole dish. Laid in the pork chops, sprinkled with black pepper and a little garlic powder, poured in the beer, covered with foil and cooked in the over for about 40 minutes. They fell apart they were so tender and the flavor was really good.

With modification this recipe is amazing! I read reviews and did the following.... Seared my chops over high heat on both sides. Lightly browned about 2 1/2 cups of baby bella mushrooms. Layered onion rings in the bottom of crockpot. Covered in a layer of crushed garlic (3) Placed chops on top. Poured mushrooms over chops Poured a mixture over chops of: 1 bottle of negro modelo beer, 1 can of cream of mushroom soup, lots of garlic powder, 2 pinches dried basil, 2 pinches dried oregano, 1 pinch paprika, few shakes of lawry's seasoning salt, fresh ground pepper, and 2 drops tabasco. I let it cook for 5 hours total. The first 45 minutes I did it on high, then put it on low. 1 hour before serving I thickened the sauce by adding cornstarch... then put on high until boiling. Once it started boiling I let it boil for 5 minutes or so, then put it back on low with the cover cracked until time to serve. I do not eat meat, and I am allergic to mushrooms so I did not get to try this, but my fiance and his buddy LOVED it, ate every bite. I only wish I would've had time today to make mashed potatoes... I will for sure make them next time. Both boys said the beer flavor was not strong at all. I think it was the beer I used. If you want the beer flavor mellow then use a mellow beer, if you want it strong, use an IPA.... the more hoppy the beer, the stronger the beer flavor. I think the negro modelo was perfect.

Smells really great whilst cooking and the chops were ultra-tender. I think this is a good base for a more flavorful recipe - just need to experiment with some spices to find the perfect combination. Don't think the chicken cubes are enough.

Listen to Alissa's posting. This recipe is good for a base in order to prepare further to your own preference. My husband loved this recipe because he loves Guiness. I liked it because the chops were tender and because it was a snap to prepare.

First thing's first, the chops DEFINITELY taste like beer...so if you don't like beer, you probably won't like this recipe. I thought it was pretty good. I took advice from other reviewers and added a can of cream of mushroom soup, used Guiness, and seasoned the chops with seasoning salt and onion & garlic powders. Next time I will defintely add a can of mushrooms. I thickened the sauce with 1 tablespoon cornstarch and served all over brown rice. Very easy to make, low in fat, and high in protein...you can't beat that! I will probably make again.

Another reviewer was right - this IS what pork is supposed to taste like!! I didn't have bouillon cubes - so I used gray sea salt, pepper, a bay leaf, poultry seasoning, garlic powder, and Cajun seasoning. I used a bottle of extra pale ale AND a bottle of Miller Draft. Once it was done - I removed the meat, onions, and bay leaf and poured the remaining liquid in a pot. I added more Cajun seasoning, a little water, milk, and Wondra and made a thick gravy. Topped it all off with crumbled cooked bacon - and yummy!! I will make this again and again!!!!!!! Thanks a bunch!!

I gave this a three because I wasn't all that impressed, my in-laws and husband loved it, I love beer, but it didn't turn out as I expected, I added a few things such as red potatoes, fresh garlic, Tony's, cream of mushroom and cream of chicken soup. If I make it again I think I will try Bud or Bud Light rather than a local dark beer. And the chops were kinda dry,I make better, jucier ones on the grill. I'm sure it's an excellent recipe if you know what you are doing.

I don't think I will make this again. I followed the recipe exactly, but I added some cream of mushroom soup like others suggested. The beer taste was just to much for us, I used Killians beer which is what I had on hand.

I am giving this a 4 because my husband loved it. I hated it and would have given it a 2, but to be fair I think it's because of the beer I used. As others suggested, I used Guinness, even though I don't like Guinness! The taste was just overwhelming for me. As others also suggested, I mixed the beer with one can of cream of mushroom soup, but to be honest all I could taste was Guinness! My husband loves Guinness and said this is some of the best pork I've made, so go figure! I did come out very tender and juicy - not at all dry. So I guess just use beer that you would actually drink and then you will probably like this!

My family liked the modified recipe - we used a can of Guinness and two cans of Campell's cream of mushrooms. Also used carrots instead of potatoes. We don't have a slow cooker, so I simmered it on the stove for the whole afternoon instead. It smelled fantastic and my parents asked for seconds.
