About Pork, fresh, loin, center rib (chops), bone-in, separable lean only, cooked, braised
The pork chop is the steak of the pig — a quick-cooking cut from along the loin and a weeknight dinner staple the world over. Trimmed of its fat, as this entry is, it's far leaner than pork's old fatty reputation suggests, with mild meat that takes well to a sear, a brine or a glaze.
It's a strong source of high-quality protein, and pork in particular stands out for thiamin (vitamin B1), of which it's one of the best food sources, along with B6, B12, niacin, selenium and zinc. Choosing the lean loin keeps the protein high while the saturated fat stays moderate.
The classic mistake is cooking a lean chop until it's dry; leaving a touch of pink in the middle (pork is safe at 63°C/145°F) keeps it juicy and tender.
