Pork Chops and Gravy Tips
- Scrape up the brown bits. When you’re cooking the gravy, make sure to scrape up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. This will make the sauce taste even better.
- Don’t use thicker than ½″ pork chops. The pork chops, bone-in or boneless, should not be thicker than ½″ or they will not cook through. If your chops are thicker, use a meat mallet to shape them to ½″.
- Internal temperature should be a minimum of 145°F. When you’re cooking boneless pork chops, the searing time will be a little less. Use a meat thermometer to check the temperature; this helps with cooking any meat.
- For 6 servings, use 6 pork chops and multiply your other ingredients by 1.5. For double the serving, double all ingredients. You will most likely need to cook in two batches when cooking for 6 and definitely will need to do so for cooking double the amount.
If you love mushrooms, you are going to love my mushroom soup. So easy to prepare and just amazing!
Pork Chops with Mushroom Gravy FAQs
This dish is a perfect make-ahead meal to impress your friends when hosting a party, or for making earlier in the day before serving dinner. Cook it ahead of time, then reheat it in the mushroom gravy minutes before serving. The gravy heats up perfectly, giving you time to relax and enjoy your guests or your family.
This pork recipe is so versatile. You can use any mushrooms you like in this recipe. They all work well, from button mushrooms to portobello mushrooms, to mixed sliced mushrooms.
This is up to preference! Although we use bone-in pork chops for this recipe, you can use either boneless or bone-in, whichever you prefer.
Bone-in pork chops tend to be more tender than boneless. Make sure to give them plenty of seasoning. Letting them rest while you’re cooking the gravy is key to their tenderness, as is reheating them with the gravy spooned on top.

Instructions
- Pat 4 pork chops (bone-in or boneless) dry and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.

Notes
- This recipe can be made using bone-in or boneless pork chops.
- If boneless, the searing time per side maybe a little less. Pork should be cooked to an internal temperature of minimum 145°F.
- Cooking pork chops too long will dry them out, so be careful not to overcook your them. A meat thermometer always helps when cooking any meat.
- Make sure you get the pork chops to the point that they have that nice golden look to the and crispy edges.
- Don’t forget to scrape up the browned bits leftover on the pan from the chops…this is the secret to a great tasting sauce!

Long ago, I made pork chops & gravy using mushroom soup. Then along came our keto diet, and this dish was forgotten – until now. This recipe is absolutely fantastic, much better than with canned mushroom soup and healthier, too. Since we love gravy, I increased the gravy to 1 1/2x the recipe amount and also substituted arrow root for the flour (to follow keto). After adding the browned chops to the gravy, I covered & simmered for about an hour. Fork tender and awesome. Thank you for sharing. We will be having this again and again.

This gravy was just lovely. We had a pork tenderloin that needed using and with some very minor mods this worked beautifully. Served with (store bought) mashed potatoes and roasted Brussels sprouts. Really wonderful! Thanks so much for this easy and delicious recipe.
