This recipe was very good - the chops were extremely tender and the flavor was wonderful. This is a "do again" meal, raved those for whom I cooked. I heeded the other reviews, though, and didn't add any Minute rice (to avoid mushy rice)- just made the pork chops. I made Stove-Top stuffing on the side, which was compatible with the gravy even (mashed potatoes, on the side, would have worked as well, too). I used two thick pork chops with bone-in (12-oz each) and made the following modifications to the remainder of the recipe: First, I seasoned the chops with coarse salt and coarse pepper and then browned the chops on both sides for 5 to 6 minutes each side. Then, I layered all the ingredients (without rice) in the order presented on the ingredient list. I sliced the onion into flat circles and separated the rings. I used diced, fresh mushrooms instead of canned, and I added minced garlic (2 tsp. - we like a lot, but even this amount is not too potent) in addition to the garlic powder. I slow-cooked the meal for only 5 1/2 hours on low (not that it couldn't go the whole length of time; just that I started late and the chops were more than well cooked after 5 hours). I actually made the whole meal in the Ninja Cooking system, which allows me to do the stove-top browning and then the slow cooker all in one pot. Will be making this one again. I'm wondering whether rice really would have been a problem. I could see Minute rice being overly mushy with this cooking time, but I wonder what regular rice would do. There seemed to be plenty of liquid, and the gravy would definitely provide enough flavor. Or, I might just stick with stuffing on the side; it was a perfect combination.

I will definitely cook this again. Instead of 2 cans of cream of mushroom soup, I used one of cream of chicken and 1 cream of mushroom and it turned out great. I used regular rice but only 3/4 of a cup and followed the same recipe. It was not necessary to do the finger trick. I also put some quartered potatoes on the top. Thanks for this great dish.

<p>I live in Northern Indiana with my husband of 37 years and best friend, Evan. Due to unfortunate circumstances and God's grace, we are raising our two beautiful grandchildren from our daughter, Chris, who lost her battle with breast cancer after a hard, four year battle. It is a responsibility that I do not take lightly. God has blessed us with these kids and it is an honor to be able to raise them. That's not to say, it's easy. Organization is the key. We do lots of meal planning and advance preparation. <br /><br />Evan & I enjoy eating out at fine restaurants and then trying to re-create gourmet meals at home. Unfortunately (?) we are such good cooks that we are usually disappointed when eating out because we know that what we prepare tastes better (and less expensive). Therefore, we usually only order something that we haven't made at home. <br /><br />We love to cook together and spend many hours cooking for family and friends. Quite honestly, Evan is the better cook in the family. He has a knack for knowing what flavors and spices blend well together and has created many original creations. <br /><br />I love to find and try out new recipes - which is why I visit Recipezaar often. We've added many of your shared recipes to my public cookbook titled Permanent Edition. I only post recipes that are our favorites and feel that others will enjoy them. I look for ease of preparation AND outstanding flavor. If I post a recipe that's a little more work, it's because the end result deserves the extra effort. <br /><br />If we had a month off with no work, no responsibilities, and no financial issues; we'd spent time on the ocean in Oregon. My husband grew up in Seattle and spent summers at Cannon Beach (Oregon). I've only been there twice but absolutely love the area. <br /><br /><img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif alt= /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/vjuhl/MEPcookathon.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><img alt= /><br />src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket> <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r317/j_welcome/pics2/food/PRMRcopy.jpg alt= /></p>
