Tips for cooking pork chops

• Buy Bone-on Pork Chops: Look for bone-in pork chops. They take a little longer to cook than boneless pork chops, but they are a good way to ensure you get tender and juicy pork chops. They take only few more minutes to cook, so it won’t really make a difference.

• Season the pork chops before cooking: Pork chops are a pretty lean and bland cut of meat on their own. Make sure to season your pork chops with salt and spices before cooking to bring out the natural flavors. You can also try a very short brine (about 30 minutes)  to improve the taste and texture of your pork chops.

• Avoid overcooking your pork chops with the stovetop-to-oven method: You’ll notice many of our pork chops recipes listed here call for first searing the pork chops in the pan, then baking them in the oven. Pork chops are a tender, quick-cooking cut of meat  so it is easy to overcook them if you’re not careful – they will end up dry and tough. That’s why we like to begin first with the pork chops on the stovetop, where they get a good sear (and a nice golden crust), and then transfer them to the oven to finish cooking. The heat of the oven helps control the speed of cooking and prevents the outside of the pork chops from getting dry before the middle has finished cooking.
