Ingredients
  

  • 4 thick-cut pork chops
  • 8 oz mushrooms sliced

  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • 3 oz cream cheese softened
  • ⅓ cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Season the pork chops with salt, black pepper, thyme and onion powder.
  2. Arrange the chops in the slow cooker.
  3. Add sliced mushrooms and minced garlic around the pork.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth.
  5. Cover and cook on LOW.
  6. Begin checking the pork after about 2 hours.
  7. When the chops reach 145°F (63°C), transfer them to a plate.
  8. Stir softened cream cheese into the hot cooking liquid.
  9. Add heavy cream and stir until the sauce becomes smooth and creamy.
  10. Return the pork chops briefly and coat them with the mushroom sauce.
  11. Rest the pork before serving.

Notes

Add the cream cheese and heavy cream near the end, rather than slow cooking the dairy for several hours. This is also how your article recommends keeping the sauce smooth.
