This Stuffing Pork Chop Casserole is just plain old comfort food at its best. This is just like grandma used to make. We loved it back and we still love it, and you will too!

Boneless or bone-in chops are lightly browned and tucked into a pan of freshly made stuffing and baked to tender perfection!

Boneless Or Bone-in Pork Chops for this Pork Chop Casserole

You can use either boneless or bone-in chops for this recipe. Whatever you have will work. Both kinds of chops will benefit from a nice long bake in moist stuffing in the oven.

I know a lot of people think boneless chops are tough. And they definitely can be tough! The secret to tender boneless pork chops without using a marinade is not to overcook them.

Especially in this recipe, ALL you need is a quick sear on each side for browning the chops. Don’t go for a long hot fry or you’ll dry them out.

Once they’re lightly browned you’ll cover them tightly and bake them slowly in a deep frying pan or dutch oven. The long slow cook will keep them as tender as possible.

If you’re using bone-in chops they’re going to be more tender because it’s a different cut of meat.

What do you need for this casserole?

• pork chops bone-in or boneless
• 12 ounce box of cornbread stuffing mix–I used Mrs. Cubbison’s Corn Bread but this recipe will work with any of those varieties
• butter
• chopped onion
• chopped celery
• chicken or vegetable broth
• poultry seasoning
• garlic powder
• salt
• pepper
• a deep frying pan OR a dutch oven with a tight fitting lid

How many pork chops for this casserole?

This is a great recipe to make if you need to feed a lot of people. You can make the entire batch of stuffing with 4-6 chops.

Or you can add more chops if you have a lot of meat-eaters in the family. You can add up to 4 more chops for a total of 10 chops in this casserole. Just tuck them in the stuffing overlapping themselves and bake until cooked through!
