Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
6 bone-in pork shoulder chops (3/4-inch thick; about 3 pounds total)
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 cup rice or cider vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
6 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large Dutch oven or heavy pot with a tight-fitting lid, heat oil over high. Season chops with salt and pepper. In batches, cook chops until browned on both sides, 5 minutes per batch, flipping once. Layer chops in pot and add vinegar, 1 cup water, sugar, and garlic. Cover, transfer to oven, and braise until cooking liquid is reduced by three-quarters and chops are tender, 40 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley and serve with pan juices.

The pork chops were a bit dry, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend using a different cut of pork, such as pork tenderloin, which is more tender.

The pork chops were a little tough, but the sauce was very good. I would recommend cooking the pork chops for a shorter amount of time.

The pork chops were a little dry for my taste, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend using a different cut of pork, such as pork shoulder, which is more forgiving and will stay moist.
