Old school meaning thin and way over cooked. Delicious.

    Looks excellent brother Stem. The pics look great as well.

    Thanks. The only problem is one thin overcooked pork chop is not nearly enough. Needed about three or four. I picked them up at the farmers market and wasn't sold on Berkshire pork so I only got two. Definitely should of gotten more. The last two Berkshire picnic shoulders have been great also.

    Great looking chops. And those potatoes in a pan with what I am guessing is butter just put it over the top. Nice job.

    I feel your pain brother Stem and agree. I know a lot of folks think that I exaggerate the amount that I eat, but I assure you that I don't. One or two pork chops would be just enough to piss me off. Pork chops that size above, I could easily eat 10 of them without batting a eye. More than that if I was even slightly hungry. I have had great results with the Berkshire pork as well. It's good stuff for sure. Again, great cook buddy. Just cook more next time ;)

    That's why I called them old school. I think everyone remembers eating thoroughly cooked chops.

    I was surprised by the amount of fat on these pork chops. These things seemed to be as fat and greasy as bacon. Maybe it's a trait of the Berkshire pig.

    fat was the key to those old school over cooked chops being so tasty

    Sometime's old school foods are just what I'm looking for. It's hard to beat a thin fried pork chop. It's actually a favorite of mine.
