Comments (13)Dishes done: I didn't post my recipe at the time, so I'll put it in now. Lous Broiled Spare Ribs and Finger Licking Good , Sauce I use Country Style or Sizzlers , cut a little thicker than ½ inch For about 3 ½ lb. of meat. Put a pot of water to boil, on the range top, with just enough water To cover the Ribs. Add: 1/3 teaspoon of Old Bay Seasoning , Garlic Powder and Onion Powder. An Italian pinch of Ground Cloves , Basil and Oregano 1/4 Teaspoon of Black Pepper 2 Bay leaves Simmer for about 25 minutes If Im going to make Spaghetti Sauce later, Ill save this stock to thin the Tomatoes and Puree Meanwhile, put in a small bowl : 1/2 cup of Bullseye or Krafts Original Barbecue Sauce 1/2 cup of Ketsup 1/2 teaspoon of Mustard ¼ teaspoon of Old Bay Seasoning 1/3 Teaspoon of Garlic Powder, Onion Powder A pinch of Cloves , Basil and Oregano Black Pepper or Red Pepper to taste. 2 tablespoons of Brown Sugar and Maple or Pancake Syrup 2 Heaping tablespoons of Grape Jelly and Strawberry Jam Smooth out the Jelly and Jam with a fork and mix well. This may sound like overpowering sweetness but it is not. I use a 9x 13 SS pan and lay some Sauce on the bottom. Then I lay in the simmered Spare Ribs and spoon the Sauce on them. If there is some sauce left over , save it for basting when the ribs are almost done. I cook them in an electric range Broiler, set on Low, Placed on a shelf about 8 inches below the burner. They will cook in about 25 minutes. Test after 20 minutes Ummmmmmmeemm Gooooooooood !!!!!!!!...See MoreFrying pork chops.
Comments (14)RE: Frying pork chops. clip this post email this post what is this? see most clipped and recent clippings * Posted by terri_pacnw (My Page) on Wed, Feb 6, 08 at 18:51 Depending on the thickness of the chops...they can be done in mere minutes. I'd bet you are over cooking. I cook pork chops two ways the most. 1) season with my favorite seasoning salt and let sit to nearly room temp.(meanwhile preheating oven to 400F) Add EVOO to hot frying pan. Sear side 1 until it's got a nice crust...2-3 minutes. Flip over and pop into the oven. Let cook about 5-6 minutes more or to desired doneness. (will also depend on the thickness.) I do this with center cut boneless loin or center cut bone in. (I don't like blade(sirloin) chops much myself.)~going for a hue of pink in the center. 2) Dip chops in seasoned flour. ~flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper or whatever you like.~again let chops come to room temp or close to it. Again hot pan, EVOO. Fry until a crust forms. Flip over and continue until the crust is formed. Pour in some chicken broth to about half way up. Cover and let simmer on low about 20 minutes. Take chops out, set aside. Carefully mix in flour to avoid lumps. Thin with milk or more broth. Put chops back in cover and let simmer until you are ready to serve..sometimes for me this another hour. (This will not be over cooked because of simmering in the broth and then the "gravy". This is a method that I have never heard of. It really sounds unique and in the right direction for some great chops! It doesn't answer my question but it is something I am DEFINITELY going to give a go, thank you! To everyone else I understand not to overcook the chops as they will become hard! I also realize that a lot of people like those center cut chops and have a lot of ways to cook them, but I just don't care for them. However my love of pork chops is in the "end/blade chops" not the center cut chops! I realize that most ladies like the C cut because of the lower calorie content and I can understand that, but I don't have a problem in that area. It's the technique with the super crust and tender interior that I need to learn. I had a great instructor, but at the time I just didn't pay attention!...See MoreCookalong - #42 Pork

Press out as much air as possible and seal bag, making sure that all pieces are coated with marinade. Refrigerate at least 15 minutes or up to 1 hour. Whisk broth and cornstarch into remaining soy sauce mixture in medium bowl. In separate small bowl, mix garlic and ginger with 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil; set aside. 3. Heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in 12-inch cast-iron or nonstick skillet over high heat until just smoking. Add half of pork in single layer, breaking up clumps with wooden spoon. Cook, without stirring, 1 minute. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons wine to skillet; cook, stirring constantly, until liquid is reduced and pork is well coated, 30 to 60 seconds. Transfer pork to medium bowl and repeat with remaining pork, 1 teaspoon oil, and remaining 2 tablespoons wine. Wipe skillet clean with paper towels. 4. Return skillet to high heat, add 1 teaspoon vegetable oil, and heat until just smoking. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until light golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes.

It is so good and again I couldn't print the picture. I am so sorry, because it looked mouth-watering good. I just have to learn what I'm not doing or doing wrong. jude Pork Schnitzel with Lemon Caper Butter This is a very tasty recipe that I found in our local newspaper. It had achieved the recognition of being one of the top 25 recipes that the newspaper had tested and reviewed in 2011. It's an adaptation of a recipe from the Gourmet Today cookbook. Since pork tenderloin is our favorite cut of pork, I'm always looking for new ways to serve it. This was...delicious! The salty flavor of the capers pairs so well with the breaded schnitzel. It was also a fairly easy dinner to put together and the cooking time is quick. I served it with a simple salad on the side. Enjoy! Pork Schnitzel with Lemon Caper Butter Adapted from Gourmet Today Printable Recipe Note: I cut the recipe in half and only used 1 egg Makes 4 servings 1 ½ pounds pork tenderloin, slice into 1-inch-thick rounds 6 tablespoons cup unsalted butter (divided in half) 3 tablespoons olive oil (divided) 2 tablespoons capers, rinsed and patted dry 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice Salt and freshly ground black pepper 3 eggs 1 ½ cups fine dry bread crumbs 6 tablespoons vegetable oil (about) (divided) Garnish: 1 ½ teaspoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley Lemon wedges Line 1 baking sheet with waxed paper and another baking sheet with paper toweling. Pound pork tenderloin rounds between two sheets of plastic wrap to ¼-inch thickness. Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Line a baking sheet with wax paper. In a small saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons butter. Stir in capers, lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Remove from heat and cover loosely to keep warm. Pat pork rounds dry and season with salt and pepper. In a shallow bowl or pie plate, beat eggs with ¼ teaspoon salt. Put bread crumbs in another pie plate or shallow bowl. Dip pork rounds in egg mixture, one at a time, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge in bread crumbs and place on wax-paper-lined baking sheet. In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil with 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat until foam subsides. Add 2 to 3 pieces of pork, without crowding meat, and cook, turning once, until golden and just cooked through, about 1 minute per side. Transfer cooked rounds to paper-towel-lined baking sheet and keep warm in preheated oven. Cook remaining pork pieces in the same way, adding 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter for each batch. Serve pork drizzled with caper butter and sprinkled with parsley and lemon wedges on the side. o RE: Cookalong #42 ---------- PORK clip this post email this post what is this? see most clipped and recent clippings Posted by chase (My Page) on Fri, Mar 9, 12 at 15:31 FOAS, Pork Lo Mein recipe reminded me of this one.

You can brown sliced onions along with the pork if you want a lower sodium alternative but I like the flavor of the onion soup mix. CITY CHICKEN 1 1/2 lbs. pork cubes 1/2 cup flour 1/4 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. garlic powder 1/4 tsp. pepper 2 Tbs. butter 2 tbs. vegetable oil 1 envelope dried onion soup mix 2 cups chicken broth or water, or 1 cup of each Thread pork on small wooden skewers.

My ingredient is cheap, 19 cents a pound at the local grocery right now. It's readily available and I think terribly under utilized and I like it. So, my choice is cabbage!
