Recipe Tips
- You can sear the pork chops before adding them to the slow cooker. Personally, I find they are still delicious slow-cooked from raw.
 - The mushrooms are optional but do add a bit more flavor to the sauce and pork chops.
 - To cook this dish faster, turn the slow cooker to high and reduce the cooking time to three hours.
 - You can make ranch dressing seasoning at home with just a few ingredients. Making it at home is ideal if you cannot get your hands on any.
 - Heavy cream is also known as thickened cream in Australia, culinary cream in New Zealand, or whipping cream in the United Kingdom.
