- Mix all ingredients well until thoroughly combined.
- Cut each biscuit into 10 to 12 pieces.
- Stir the biscuit pieces into the soup mixture one at a time until evenly coated.
- Spoon the biscuit mixture over the chops in the baking dish.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 1 hour until bubbling and golden.
Tips & Substitutions
For added flavor, consider using smoked paprika in place of regular pepper, or add chopped onions to the celery mixture. If you don’t have cream of celery soup, cream of chicken works just as well. To make this dish vegetarian, substitute the pork chops with hearty mushrooms and use vegetable broth instead of the soup. This also pairs beautifully with Orange Cranberry Muffins for a festive touch.
Serving Suggestions
Serve this biscuit stuffing atop pork chops alongside a fresh green salad or steamed vegetables for a well-rounded meal. For a comforting side, mashed potatoes or roasted sweet potatoes complement the dish nicely. This hearty recipe is perfect for family gatherings and can also be enjoyed with a slice of Sour Cream Pound Cake(Wedding Cake) for dessert.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the stuffing and chops in a baking dish, cover with foil, and warm in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) until heated through. You can also microwave individual portions for convenience.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen biscuits instead of canned?
Yes, you can use frozen biscuits. Just ensure they are thawed before cutting them into pieces to mix with the soup mixture. This will allow for even coating and baking.
Can I prepare this dish ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can assemble the dish a day in advance and refrigerate it. Just remember to adjust the baking time if it's coming straight from the fridge to ensure it heats through completely.
What can I substitute for pork chops?
You can substitute pork chops with chicken breasts or thighs for a similar cooking method. For a vegetarian option, consider using large portobello mushrooms as a base for the stuffing.
