    I agree with you! I don’t have pork chops a whole lot, but when I do, it’s always the same. So I’m always looking for something new to spice them up! I may just have to try this. We usually buy bone-in chops, but I am going to be switching to boneless as soon as I see some really nice ones.

      Despite what Michael said, I liked this recipe a lot. I find pork chops boring and this gave it a nice flavor! Try it!

    We should have pork chops more often…my husband LOVES them because it reminds him of his childhood. Served with applesauce. Personally, I think that is a pretty blah meal. I do like pork tenderloin, that seems more flavourful and versatile. Must say, the recipe here looks darn good!!!! Hope you have a wonderful Wednesday Lisa.

      I haven’t tried pork chops with applesauce. Sounds interesting!

    I love pork chops and my husband will not eat them, so I have them when he is working late. I also LOVE pork with apples – you can buy the apple pie filling made with splenda and use it to go over the pork. Pork with mustard sauces and asian flavoring is good also, but chops are great grilled with just salt and pepper for seasoning. I really like to marinate and cook pork loins or tenderloins. YUM YUM!

    I agree with Michael on pork already having lots of flavor that doesn’t need to be covered.

      Pork with mustard is good! I’ve done that before and liked it a lot.

    I love pork and wish we ate it more often. I was lucky enough to find out about once a week one of our local grocery stores puts out what I think are the “unpretty” shops and random large pork loin pieces and tosses them together. Its usually about $1.50 a pound and there’s about 5 pounds per package. I pick one up every chance I get.

    I think the flavor is almost perfect on its own. I season them with seasoning salt, onion and garlic powder, put a little water in a pan, and shallow boil them until they’re done. Very simple and if you cover the pan, you barely have to watch them at all.

    My mom has a recipe for breaded pork chops which I keep meaning to try, but it takes several hours and quite a bit (to me) of prep work, though they do taste delicious!

      I’ve never had breaded pork chops before. It sounds intriguing!

      That’s great that you were able to find cheap ways to buy meat. We bought the pork chops at Costco in a huge pack. The pork chops are so freakin’ thick that we cut one in half lengthwise and make two normal sized chops out of it. We doubled our money by doing that too.

    Looks delicious! I’m not usually a huge pork chop fan, but these actually look quite good.

      It was really good. If you try it, let me know! 🙂
