Pork chops were a frequent dish in my home growing up. My mom would lay a bed of sauerkraut in a casserole dish, lay the chops on top, and then pour sauce on top of that before baking. It seemed we ate them weekly though I’m sure that’s an exaggeration. Nevertheless, I was raised with a love of pork chops.
These chops were some I tried only a few years ago. I saw someone post about them on Facebook and thought they were so simple they must be delicious. They are! They’ve been both a company meal (served with Fuji Apple Salad and Crispy Smashed Roasted Potatoes with Dill Aioli) and a weeknight meal (with applesauce and mashed potatoes). Though I always make these out on the grill at home, I have also made them with great success on my mom’s indoor electric grill. In fact, those are the pork chops pictured.
