Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons Miss Brown's House Seasoning, recipe follows
1 tablespoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon yellow mustard
4 thin bone-in pork loin chops (about 2 pounds total)
Canola oil, for frying
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
3/4 cup half-and-half
Generous pinch of Miss Brown's House Seasoning, recipe follows
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
1 1/2 teaspoons sweet paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the pork chops: Pour the buttermilk into a shallow baking dish and set aside. In another shallow baking dish, stir together the flour and 1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons of the House Seasoning and set aside.
  • Stir together the hot sauce, mustard and the remaining teaspoon of the House Seasoning in a small bowl. Rub the seasoning onto both sides of the pork chops. Place the pork chops in the buttermilk and turn to coat completely.
  • Pour enough oil into a large cast-iron skillet to come 1 inch up the sides. Heat over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer reaches 350 degrees F.
  • Working with one piece at a time, remove the pork chops from the buttermilk, letting any excess drip off. Coat in the flour mixture and carefully add to the hot oil. Fry, turning once, until the chops are browned and reach an internal temperature of 150 degrees F, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a clean wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet to drain.
  • For the table gravy: Meanwhile, drain the oil from the skillet. Melt the butter over medium-high heat, then whisk in the flour and cook for a minute, whisking constantly. Whisk in the half-and-half, a little at a time. Bring the gravy to a simmer and simmer until thickened, whisking occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the House Seasoning and season with salt and pepper.
  • Stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl.

Tips:

  • Use a meat mallet to tenderize the pork chops before cooking. This will help to ensure that they are cooked evenly and stay juicy.
  • Season the pork chops generously with salt and pepper before frying. This will help to enhance their flavor.
  • Use a cast iron skillet to fry the pork chops. Cast iron skillets distribute heat evenly and can withstand high temperatures, making them ideal for frying.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat until they are golden brown and cooked through. Do not overcrowd the skillet, as this will cause the pork chops to steam rather than fry.
  • Make the country gravy while the pork chops are cooking. This will allow the flavors to meld together and create a delicious, rich sauce.
  • Serve the pork chops and country gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or your favorite side dish.

Conclusion:

Kirsten's Fried Pork Chops with Country Gravy is a classic Southern dish that is sure to please everyone at the table. The pork chops are tender and juicy, and the country gravy is rich and flavorful. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.
