    Those look outstanding! I like pork chops, but don’t think I’ve ever had truly great ones.

    Don’t think you have been to Vietnam, they love them

    Facts! Cooked right it’s really close to as good as a great steak.

    I buy entire pork loins and usually slice at least 1/3 of it into thick ass chops.

    Sous vide for the win for tender juicy pork loin chops. Cut one and a half inches thick, 130F for 1-2 hours then seared in a smoking hot cast iron.

    I like them but I find Lamb chops to be tastier. But I live in Australia so I might be a bit biased!

    Not a pork guy but those look delicious

    The heritage breeds rock with a fattiness that’s been bred out of commercial hogs. The duroc and Berkshire are my favorites and preferable to steak both in taste and price. Bone in the way to fly.

    Two porterhouse loin chops, 1.5 inches thick, bacon fat basted to medium with the rosemary and garlic.

    Can’t not love it.

    I think it’s because they can be tricky to cook right. People are scared of getting sick from under cooking, so they overcook, and then they’re dry and tough.

    Ya cause they are ass mate.

    The government suggested people overcook them because of trichinosis; then in the 80s and 90s they bred all these fat out of hogs.  Most Americans have only had dry, tough overcooked pork chops. If you brine them and cook them med rare-med, they’re good.

    The other white meat. Love me a pork chop!!!

    Because they are inferior and not even the best cut of pork

    Some wine, garlic, rosemary marinate 😘 always great

    I prefer a pork shoulder steak to a chop.

  25. Corona_n_lime

    Shhh it’s one of the meats I can still afford

    I assume that is because most severely overcook them
