GRANNY'S BUTTERMILK FRIED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Sprinkle both sides of pork chops lightly with seasoning salt. I like Garlic & Pepper Seasoning salt, but Lawry's is good, so is Old Bay.
• Place chops into a ziplock bag and pour in the buttermilk. Squeeze air out of the bag before you close it, and mush it around a little to make sure that all chops are coated with the buttermilk. LeT stand in the fridge for several hours.
• In a pie plate, mix together flour, 1/8 tsp black pepper, and 1/2 tsp seasoning salt. more or less to your taste.
• Heat oil in a large heavy frying pan to medium high heat. Oil should reach slightly less than 1/2 inch deep in the pan.
• Dip buttermilk coated chops in flour mixture making sure that it is completely coated. Repeat with all chops.
• When oil is hot, add chops and let cook uncovered for about 2 minutes. Turn down heat to medium low and let cook uncovered until bottoms are browned and red juices start to accumulate over the bones.
• Turn over with tongs, cover pan with a lid, then turn down heat slightly and let cook until browned on the bottoms.
• Transfer to a sheet of crinkled foil. Wrap foil loosely around chops and let rest for about 5 minutes.

• Put about 1 Tbsp oil in a large skillet. Fry pork chops over high heat till crisp brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side. You may need to pan-fry them for longer if you have thicker pork chops. Place finished pork chops on a plate and dry off residual oil with a paper towel. Set aside.
• Use some of the leftover oil in the skillet to stir-fry the garlic cloves, spring onion, and sliced jalapeño pepper. Add 1 tsp sesame oil. Return pork chops to the pan and stir-fry all together for about 30 seconds. Let pork chops rest for 5 minutes.

GRANDMA HELENS CHICKEN FRIED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• 1. Cut the extra fat around the edges of the chops so they do not curl up while cooking. Brush with mustard and dredge in flour. Heat a skillet up with some oil in it.
• 2. Fry the pork chops up until browned. I usually have to do this in batches. Putting them all back in the pan, now add the soup, pouring it over the top and adding 1/2 a can of water as well.
• 3. Simmer for about 45 minutes until tender, checking to see if it drys out and needs more water. If so, add a little bit at a time. It has a ready made gravy! Just make up some mashed potatoes to go with it-whoo-hoo!

GRANDMA'S PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• 1. Rub both sides of the chops with the dry rub, coating them generously. Place them in a deep baking dish, overlapping if necessary. Stir the citrus juices, vinegar, and garlic together in a bowl until blended. Pour over the chops and massage into them.
• 2. Marinate the chops at room temperature for up to 1 hour or in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
• 3. Pour enough oil into a large, heavy skillet to film the bottom. (If necessary, work in batches or use two skillets - if you have them and space on the stove to hold them.) Heat the oil over medium heat until rippling. Remove the chops from the marinade and discard the marinade. Add as many chops as will fit in the pan without touching. Cook until the chops are well browned on the underside, about 6 minutes. Turn the chops and cook until they are firm near the bone when you poke them with a finger, about 8 minutes. Keep warm while cooking the second batch, if necessary. Serve immediately.

• With a fork, prick the pork chops thoroughly to tenderize the meat. Season the chops with salt and pepper.
• Gently press the pork chops into the flour to coat, and shake off the excess flour. Dip into the beaten egg mixture, then press each chop into the cracker crumb mixture. Gently toss between your hands so any crumbs that haven't stuck can fall away
• Heat the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat, and gently place the pork chops into the hot oil. Fry the chops until the meat is no longer pink in the center and the crust is crisp and golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Remove the chops from the pan, and drain the excess oil on paper towels.
