I just got about 10 bone-in regular chops (thin, not thick) like your mom used to make. I need to cook them tonight and need opinions. Grill, pan fry, bake, braise?

Please inspire me.

BBQ like the pro just said or fry them. If frying, make a milk and egg wash, season flour with Tony's until the salt tastes correct for you(yes, taste the flour as you season), heat 3 inches of oil to 360,run through the wash, roll in flour, shake off the excess, and fry until golden. Don't crowd the pot...fry a few at a time. Drain on a wire rack and make a gravy for mashed potatoes or rice.Helluva meal.

I usually use buttermilk instead of the egg wash myself.

Fried thin pork chops was one of my favorite meals, growing up. Seasoned flour, only, for me, though. No egg wash. No thick coating.

Put them in a corningwear dish with sliced onions and apples...a little brown sugar....350 till done....about 45 min....cornbread and butterbeans...you are all set.

note; wash and dry the chops before cooking...the butcher will leave bone fragments all over the chops.

Smothered w/ rice and gravy fresh snap bean and candied yams is the correct answer

I like to grill them, and at the end put some sort of BBQ/preserves mixture on them and let char a bit. Thin bone-in chops are awesome...

Do you really need a recipe for smothered pork chops? Guess I'm lucky my mom taught me how to cook!

I learned this tip from Cook's Illustrated. Start with a COLD PAN. Flip the chops when side one is browned, and don't let them go too long on side two. The surface of side two may not get browned, but the meat will be so juicy and succulent, you won't care. Try it, pork chops are cheap, and you won't regret it.

What Martini said about what Gee said.

Smothered. And make plenty of gravy, so you can put that shite on everything for the next few days.
