Treat yourself to a delicious meal from your slow cooker. Crock Pot Honey Romano Pork Chops are flavor loaded, serve with some yummy mashed potatoes.
So me and pork chops? We do not usually get along. I make them rubber tough — it’s a gift. But, I thought to myself, Heather try them in the crock pot! (we love the taste of pork chops when I’m not busy killing them). I adapted this recipe that calls for pork roast and came up with Crock Pot Honey Romano Pork Chops. These pork chops were amazing and delish – you’re going to love them.
This was so yummy and the pork chops were falling off the bone (I had bone-in chops, but this would be delicious with no bone as well). You will love these — and the gravy went great on my Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes! YUM!
Crock Pot Honey Romano Pork Chops make an excellent freezer meal as well. You guys know I love myself a freezer meal! So perfect to have dinner waiting in the freezer for me to pop into the slow cooker. If you haven’t made yourself a freezer full of food – then you need to try it!!! Having dinner ready to go with little to no prep in the morning makes my day…almost as much as coming home to dinner being cooked. (don’t you LOVE that about your slow cooker?)
So if you’re like me – busy, crazy, hectic and you also kill pork chops when trying to cook them – make sure to give Crock Pot Honey Romano Pork Chops a chance. I’m not kidding it’s one of our favorite meals.

These are yummy looking Chops and thank you so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday. Hope you are having a good week.
Come Back Soon!
Miz Helen
Heather
Thanks Miz Helen!
Brenda
Can you put all the ingredients together and freeze it?
Heather
Oh yes 😉 This would make a great freezer meal!
Marjorie
This looks delicious but my son’s can’t have dairy. Will the recipe still work without the cheese or should I alter the amounts of the other ingredients?
Thanks.
Marjorie
I don’t need to know about freezer bags. I need to know if the recipe will be okay if I omit the cheese or if I should alter the quantities of the other ingredients to make up for the omission of cheese.
Thanks.
Lori
Not sure why that reply posted to your question. None of us have prepared the recipe other than as posted, hopefully others have altered the recipe & can help answer your question.
Marjorie
I’m thinking it was for someone else 🙂
I’ll give it a try without the cheese and let you know!
Chris
Hi Marjorie,
I was wondering how it turned out without the cheese? My husband is lactose intolerant and would not be able to have this dish with chesse.
Thanks!
Heather
I’m not Marjorie – but I think it would be ok without the cheese. A little less flavorful but it would still be yummy! Come back and let us know 😉
Rebecca
This recipe looks amazing.
Heather
Thanks! It’s REALLY good 🙂
Tina
I just made this and it was delicious!!! It didn’t look orange like the picture at ALL, and I put about of cup of milk extra in with the gravy because it was super thick, but I will definitely make this again!!!
Heather
It could have been my lighting! I didn’t have super thick gravy – but sometimes me and gravy – well we disagree – it’s so yummy though right???
Hope Velez
I just completed preparing the meals and was wondering for spices or any other tablespoon teaspoon ingredient is T tablespoon or teaspoon?
Heather
Capital T is Tablespoon the same way little t is teaspoon
Annette
Can you use pork tenderloin instead? Would you cook it for same amount of time? Also would it be 1 or 2 tenderloins for this recipe?
Heather
Sure you could use a 3-4 pound tenderloin – low for 8 hours 😉 Bet it’s DELISH
Angela
We don’t eat pork so I sub’d with Lamb Chops and it was fall off the bone tender and delicious! A little sweet for my honey so next time will use a little less honey 🙂
Jenny
This has easily become one of my all time favorite crock pot meals. Terrific flavor. Thank you for sharing!!!
Julian
Dont know what I did wrong but this was a miss for me… Pork was too dry, the gravy was too thick, the cheese gave it an odd aroma, and the flavor was just bland.
Heather
Julian – I guess this just isn’t a good meal for you. Sorry about that – my whole family loved it!
Thanks for stopping over.
Betsy
Made it with a pork loin! I flipped halfway through the cooking! It was delicious! I took a serrated knife and cut it 3/4 way down in slices so that it would be slices when cooked and it was delicious! The gravy was perfect with mashed potatoes and homemade peasant bread!
Lisa
Just wondering if the cheese is the kraft grated Romano or did you use fresh grated Romano?
Heather
I bought pre-graded from the deli dept – so fresh grated 🙂
Chris
I’ve got the kraft grated parmesan in the jar. Do you think that would work? It’s more powdered than grated. Thanks! I know people who love this recipe!
Heather
sure! Fresh grated has a bit of a different taste (just sharper in my opinion) but the grated should work 😉 Enjoy!

Question; You mentioned that you rarely buy meat unless it’s on sale. Is it ok to stock up on meat in the freezer, thaw to assemble the recipes, then refreeze before cooking? I’ve always heard you shouldn’t refreeze meat.
Heather
1 – my maiden name is the same as yours (it’s weird there aren’t that many of us!) 2 – NO don’t thaw out the meat to make the meal!!!!! DO NOT! 😉 I assemble the ingredients with my meat safely still in my freezer. (I divide up my meat when I buy it before I freeze it). Then at the very last second I put the meat in and pop it right back into the freezer. I haven’t had any problems with freezer burn doing it this way 😉 But my meat always stays frozen!
Christie Booden
That is weird! My husbands family is from Chicago. Maybe we’re family? Lol.
Heather
probably – I am pretty sure down the Booden tree there are people in IL, WI and IN 😀 that’s just super weird (because there are none of us lol)
marianne
Did you freeze the gravy mixture separately or just throw it all in one bag and then into the crockpot? Does the gravy mix up in the crockpot or should I make the gravy separately when I get home?
Lori
Skye, yes liquid does go into freezer bags with other ingredients unless otherwise noted. Enjoy 🙂
Heather
The gravy comes from the sauce that the meat cooks in. Then yes you have to pull some liquid out and make the gravy with the corn starch 🙂
Ronda
Would this recipe work with country style pork ribs?
Heather
I would think so! YUM

Thanks to my father who shared with me concerning this blog, this blog is really awesome.
aarora
Hello,
I was wondering if you could cook this just in a pan or in the oven? If so would it be the same compared to the crockpot?
Heather
I would think that yes you could!
LonghornShannan
Maybe it is the photo… but these pork chops l look breaded and fried to me?
Heather
I guess it’s the photo? not my best for sure. But no – they are not breaded and fried they were straight out of the slow cooker with some gravy on top 😉
LonghornShannan
Super! If it looks like this straight out of the crockpot I know it will be a hit. I am trying it today!
Heather
it’s so good 😉 enjoy!
LonghornShannan
is T tablespoon or teaspoon?
Heather
Tablespoon 😉
LonghornShannan
OK that is what I thought, just seemed like a lot. Easier to add more than take away.
🙂
Thank you for your prompt response. It’s in the pot!
LonghornShannan
OK this pork was fabulous!!! So tender it fell apart. The sauce was yummy and a welcomed change to the typical fruity sauces that recipes often pair with pork. I love the way the sauce cakes on the chops creating almost a crust, hence the reason the photo almost looked fried. I will definitely share with others! Thank you for a wonderful dinner!
Heather
I was thinking about you – I’m SO SO SO glad you liked it – it’s one of our favorites too!
Matthew McCarthy
So happy to have found this blog! (I forget how I stumbled upon it). We have done the whole 20 meals and are happily waiting for dinner times for the month.
I was just curious, what is the average serving size of this meal?
We like to quantify things to see how much we are saving and what to look forward to.
thank you so much for putting this all together!
Take Care
Heather
Hi! I LOVE having freezer meals – you’re going to love it too.
I made most of my meals to serve 4 people (however some recipes for sure had leftovers!)
Melanie
I have been looking for your recipe as I made these a few years back while watching my growing teenage nephews for a week while my sister was on vacation. Needless to say, these porkchops were a hit with the boys and they still talk about them to this day. One of those nephews will be visiting this weekend and he specifically requested these Honey Romano Porkchops!
