It takes a lot to claim to be the best, and I'm always skeptical of such claims. I am, however, often willing to put such claims to the test.
Pinterest pins often boast of greatness and this one for The Best Pork Chops You'll Ever Taste was among them. I was low on pork recipes for this month's menu, so decided to give it a whirl.
These are good pork chops. Crispy on the outside, tender and juice inside. Maybe my standards are higher because we live in the heart of pork country, but I didn't find them outstanding. Just good.
Part of me was appalled at the amount of ingredients I threw away. There is no way you need the three cups of bread crumbs called for in this recipe. I know you need extra to get a good dredge for breading, but this was ridiculous (it also made calorie counting quite a challenge). The seasoning itself was good, but not especially interesting. Just ordinary flavors combined in a new way.
In sum, I'd say pretty good. Worth trying. Great? Maybe. Best ever? No way.
