I'm not a big fan of pork chops. In my experience, they often have the consistency of leather and no flavor to speak of.
Joe came home recently with 25 pounds of pork chops.
When I questioned his purchase, he said, "I got a good deal."
A good deal. It's only a good deal if we'll use it.
Since Joe does a lot of the day to day cooking, and Joe likes pork chops, we've been eating them pretty often.
Knowing that I don't care much for them, he's been experimenting to find a recipe that works for both of us.
This one definitely passes my test, leaving the pork chops moist, juicy, tender, and delicious.
Tonight, we ate these pork chops with smoky mac and cheese and steamed broccoli. It was an amazing dinner. So, so good.
Recipe

Believe it or not, I just got some pork chops out of the freezer. Thanks for inspiring me with this recipe! We don't have maple syrup in the Netherlands, but I'm sure I can find online how to substitute it..

Those sound yummy.
The trick with pork chops is to know that they cook quick and you NEVER want to over cook them.

Southern Fried Mama is right. Pork is delicious as long as you don't overcook it. If you marinate it, it will be easier to keep moist too and mustard is another nice tenderizer.
My first Tasty Tuesday is up too. 🙂
