The Absolute Best Southern Fried Pork Chops in the World! This is a staple Southern fried pork chop recipe. Super great seasoning!
Nothing really fancy but they are always super tasty and so easy to pull together.
Like I said the seasoning is great plus they are not greasy in the littlest bit!
The coating is a basic flour mix given to me by a friend that her former mother-in-law, who grew up in Caruthersville, Missouri, gave to her.
She also filled me in on her trick to frying it. The same trick she used for fried chicken!

In my world, Southern Fried and Pork Chops just go together!
- 1 lb pork chop
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1/2 tablespoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
- water Milk, Buttermilk or Egg Wash can be substituted
- oil for frying
Mix the dry ingredients in a resealable bag (Ziplock).
Rinse the pork chops under running water. Toss them into the ziplock bag and shake, to coat well.
In a cast-iron skillet, cook the chops in enough oil to come 1/2 way up the side of the chops, for example - 1-inch chops need 1/2 an inch of oil, on medium-high heat for approximately 4 minutes each side, until golden brown.
For the last 30 seconds of cooking the second side, increase the heat to high, to “cook the grease out of it” (The mother-in-law secret for Southern-fried!).
Blot on paper towels before serving.
Enjoy!
