Tips and Tidbits About Oven Baked Smothered Pork Chops
Be sure to cook your pork chops correctly! Under or overcooked pork is definitely not a good thing!
All meat carries the possibility of food-borne illnesses if under cooked and pork is no different. Not good, not good!
The opposite is overcooked and even though it’s not potentially bad for health who likes a tough, dried out, chewy pork chop. Don’t overcook!
The ideal is cooking pork to an internal temperature of about 145 degrees when it becomes safe to eat. Cooking much past that temperature and you could wind up with shoe leather!
The best way to check for pork chop doneness is with a meat thermometer placed in the thickest part of the chop.
Different types of chops may require different cooking times.
