Juicy thick cut pork chops are simple to prepare and the result can rival any traditional beef steak. Learn how to make the perfect thick cut pork chops with this simple method.
Juicy thick cut pork chops are simple to prepare and the result can rival any traditional beef steak. I’m not even kidding! And they are way cheaper to buy too. I call them my secret weapon when it comes to feeding a crowd on a special occasion.
Making a perfect pork chop is completely easy. If you haven’t had a thick cut pork chop before, well, prepare to fall in love with pork chops. Those thin, flimsy chops you see all over the grocery store dry out easily and lack the complete flavor pork chops have to offer.
You can buy a thick cut chop at almost any grocery, but you’ll probably have to ask for it. Just head on over to the meat counter and ask for a 1 1/2 to 2 inch thick cut pork chop. If you’ve got a good butcher, they will probably smile at your request. Keeping the bone-in helps retain both flavor and moisture, and cutting it thick practically ensures a juicy result.
Have a smoker? I also have a post detailing How to Smoke A Thick Cut Pork Chop that you should check out. Smokers are an amazing way to cook almost any meat. If you don’t already have a smoker, you should seriously consider getting one.

I have tried so many of your recipes and learned so much..I know how to make beautiful delicious salmon pork chops steak desserts salads 😋 everything I try is awesome 😋
These pork chops turned out awesome
Very juicy and tender. I made stuffed pork chops with thick chops but we’re a little dry. I think if you brine all thick chops you wouldn’t have that problem.
These are the best pork chops ever! Simple, juicy and tender!
This is the perfect recipe for pork chops. After searing I add Stonewall Kitchen maple onion bacon jam and finish cookie in oven. We live it!
Only issue is that 160 F is the minimum safe core temp for food, I’m not sure especially important in the case of pork. Strongly recommend that you push for 165
Food safety guidelines tell us that pork needs to be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
So simple and the absolute best pork chops I have ever eaten! This recipe is a winner!
I have been making this recipe for years. Best juicy tender chops EVER!!!!!❤️
Perfection! This is the absolute best way to prepare pork chops – excellent feedback on extra thick superiority.
My husband and I loved it! I made them a few months back and making them again tonight for him and my son. I am going to try a cast iron skillet for the first time ever. I am sure they will be great again. Thanks so much.
