Simple and wonderful! I did not have the Mushroom soup so used a packet of mushroom gravy thickened with flour and milk to give it more substance. I rubbed LOTS of brown sugar into the meat and poured ample soy sauce on the meat and then soaked the meat in that, flipping it over for an hour or two. After cooking in the crock pot all afternoon, the pork fell of the bone and tasted almost like a Chinese dish. It reminded me of Beef Pepper Steaks or something close to that. It would be nice to throw some broccoli and water chestnuts in for the last hour. I served the pork over a bed of white rice. Eggrolls served as a side dish would be nice. When my husband came home from work, he said the house smelled so delicious. He complimented me on the food over and over. We have 3 hogs in the freezer so I need lots of different recipes to cook the pork so it does not get dull and boring eating so much of it. I will make this again for sure and share the simple recipe with family and friends. I love it!

This was really good, except it was a bit too salty tasting. I think I will either do one of two things next time I try this recipe. Use a lower sodium soy sauce, or use less soy sauce during the marinating. But definitely tasty!

This was awesome! Great flavor! Pork chops fell apart! We had it over mashed potatoes and over white rice! Awesome both ways! We love salty food, but if you don't like salt that much, make sure you use low sodium soy!!!

very easy to make great flavor. I served it with rice and had plenty of gravy to mix with it. I'll make it again! Thanks

I really was skeptical, but 9 out of 9 people saying it's good must mean something, right? Well, I don't even have a slow cooker and it was still delicious! Next time, I will add veggies and onions to the mix, but as is, this recipe is REALLY good!

Very good recipe! I followed the recipe exactly for the most part. The only things I did differently was to use low sodium soy sauce and I added a can of mushrooms to the soup. Very easy and very good! Will def make again!

The sodium content scared me to death, so to lower it, I used low sodium soy sauce and low sodium soup. I also didn't marinate mine in the soy sauce, but coated it lightly after the brown sugar was put on. I used four nice thick chops and cooked it a long time (7 hours)and it just fell apart. And because it's meat, I just had to add a little garlic...Very good!

Like others have said, you wouldn't expect the ingredients to go together well. But they do. I halved the soysauce because I don;t like salt. I rubbed the chops with the brown sugar and then placed them in a giant ziplock bag with the soysauce and flipped them over 3 times over a 2 hour time. Then I followed the rest exactly. Served with a pot of steamed white rice...It was quick and easy and gone in a flash. My teenage son ate three...he loved them and I did too. Thanks for a great easy recipe.
