Plain pork chops

The plain pork chop is a freezer essential for easily preparing tasty meals. Without a pre-applied marinade, it gives you the freedom to choose your own seasonings, sauce, and side dishes to suit your taste.

Its versatility allows it to be cooked in a pan, on the BBQ, or on the stove. For tender, juicy meat, the key is to sear it well, monitor its internal temperature, and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

🍳 How to pan-fry a pork chop?

1. Prepare and season

After thawing, pat the chop dry with a paper towel.

Season both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, or use your favorite spice blend.

2. Sear

Heat a small amount of oil in a pan over medium-high heat.

Place the chop in the hot pan and brown for about 3 to 4 minutes per side for a chop approximately 2 cm (¾ in) thick.

Cooking time may vary depending on the actual thickness of the chop and the heat intensity.

3. Add butter and aromatics

Toward the end of cooking, add a knob of butter along with thyme or the herbs of your choice.

When the butter becomes foamy, baste the chop during the final moments of cooking.

4. Check the internal temperature

To avoid overcooking the pork, use a meat thermometer.

Aim for an internal temperature of 145 °F (63 °C) in the thickest part.

5. Let it rest

Remove the chop from the pan and let it rest for about 3 minutes before cutting.

This step allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

👩🍳 DKL Tip

For a tender chop, avoid extending the cooking time unnecessarily. The thickness of the meat directly influences the time required: use the internal temperature rather than time alone as your primary guide.

To vary the flavors, try different spice combinations: garlic and herbs, smoked paprika, BBQ spices, or mustard.

Side dish suggestions

The plain pork chop pairs particularly well with potatoes, rice, grilled vegetables, a salad, green beans, or vegetable purée.

❄️ Storage and thawing

Keep the chops frozen until you are ready to use them.

For safe and gradual thawing, place the desired amount in the refrigerator before cooking.

Information I am missing to finalize the Shopify page

You gave me the price of $60, but not yet the exact format. I only need the number of chops and their weight (e.g., 10 × 250 g or 2 kg total). Then, I can correctly provide the format, the number of portions, and the $/kg, $/lb, and $/100 g, without making up the data.
