8 Reviews of Smothered Pork Chops With Tomato Cream Gravy

From: Jess4Freedom

Wow! This was so good! 2 out of 4 kids loved it, 1 cringed because of the mushrooms, and 1 didn't like it at all. I say that's a great outcome. DH and I loved it. The sauce was so different from anything else. I normally don't like tomato sauces, so I was pleasantly surprised. The cream helped to ward off the heartburn I'd normally get from the tomato too. I think I'd leave out the brown sugar from the rub next time, just because I like my chops a little more savory. We served it over white rice with green beans. I want to try this again with pork steaks. Made for I Recommend Tag - Thanks!

    I made this last night and really enjoyed it. I served it over egg noodles. The chops were very tender. This will be made again. Made for 123 Hit Wonders. Thanks for posting.

    Well, what can I say... these were TERRIFIC! They were tender and juicy, the sauce was rich and tasty. We loved these chops. I made them exactly as written this time but will double the sauce next time because it was really great and we like alot of sauce. My little girl wants to have these again. That's a big compliment coming from her- she usually doesn't like meat at all. I served them with Spinach Supreme Casserole. They went really nice together. Thanks Gailann! This is a keeper! Made for Holiday tag.

    Wow, this was great. I often find pork chops a bit "chalky" but not tonight; ours were melt in the mouth tender and really tasty. I followed your recipe to a T except for using about a teaspoon of fresh sage leaves (pork and sage are sooo good). I found the sauce a bit thin at the end, so removed the lid and reduced it on the stove top. We ate the chops with crushed potatoes and steamed veg rather than pasta and that was good.

    I'm always looking for new ways to make pork chops and this recipe sounded good and had great reviews. That said, I am going to chalk DH and my not caring for it much up to different tastes and not the recipe itself. I found the sauce very think and rather bland and the chops were tough, very over cooked.

    These reminded us a little of Swiss Steak, flavor-wise. We had some thick loin chops that needed this kind of treatment to cook through properly, and this was a great match for them. Sliced mushrooms and onions made a great topping. Made for PRMR, July 2009.

    We made this last night and really enjoyed it! This was something like we've never tasted, which is a good thing in my book. The pork chops came out incredibly tender. We'll definately make this again. THANKS!

    For right now, the rating is for the Tomato Gravy as I have been hankering like a wheetle bug on the side of the long alfalfa stem to taste this. I have seen review after review and with this in mind, I thought this gravy would go perfectly ladled atop a meatloaf that I had put together earlier in the day. This was such an excellent addition, I am thinking that this will be my "go-to" sauce for meatloaf! Again, wonderful, soul-giving, and stomach filling recipes from this author. Bravo! Made just because I wanted to. August 2009 Will come back with pork chops too!
