One of my coworkers went to a restarant Saturday that served these pork chops. He said it was the best he has ever tasted. Went home & found where to order some online & ordered some for hiself & me.
Their site also gave him a recipe to cook them in a covered pan with apples, apple brandy, mace, nutmeg, pepper & honey.
Anyone familiar with these enough to say if this is a good enough recipe for meat of this quality. I have a CI skillet & figure I can follow teir recipe at no more than 350 dome on a raies grid to keep them from getting too hot.
Thanks all.

    That is it. I still want to know if that is good enough for these chops or if anyone has a better suggestion.
    Thanks.

    Can’t say I’ve done these…But with 50+ years of cooking behind me, I have to say it sounds like something I am going to give a try!
