Smothered Pork Chops with Potatoes in Gravy is a full-on comfort food classic. Juicy, seared pork chops, tender potatoes, and rich, savory gravy all in one skillet or casserole? Yes, please. Here’s a quick overview of why it’s a solid YAY:

✅ Why It’s a YAY:

• One-pan meal – Protein, starch, and sauce in one dish.

• Budget-friendly – Pork chops and potatoes stretch far.

• Flavor-packed – When seared and smothered right, the chops stay moist, and the gravy is golden.

• Customizable – Add onions, mushrooms, garlic, even a splash of cream or broth for depth.

• Leftovers? Delicious. The flavors only get better the next day.

🙅‍♂️ When It Might Be a NAY:

• If the chops are overcooked and dry.

• If the gravy is bland or too salty.

• If the potatoes aren’t tender (undercooked potatoes ruin the vibe).
