Being that you are our 'in house' expert on cooking now, tell me what I can do to jazz up some pork chops I am going to bake for supper tonight..
I would marinade them in a mixture of beer, orange juice, chopped onion, parsley, garlic, salt and pepper for a few hours and then put them in a cast iron pan with a little bacon fat in a 350-400 oven until they are 140F internal temp. I would take the marinade, and put it in a skillet, and boil it down until it was like syrup, strain it, and serve that as sauce over it.
A word of caution. Used to be that one had to cook the heck out of pork for safety. That really isn't required anymore. If you pull it out of the oven when it gets to 140F internal, it will continue to cook a little as it rests. (let it rest 5-10 minutes before serving) It won't be nearly so tough.
