Grannys Smothered Southern Style Pork Chops Recipes

GRANNY'S SLOW-COOKED SUNDAY SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Rinse the pork chops and pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle salt and pepper over chops, then dredge in flour to lightly coat. Reserve the remaining flour.
• In large, deep skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add two of the pork chops and cook, turning once until well browned, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chops to a plate. Repeat with remaining chops.
• Add onions and garlic to the fat in the pan and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Reduce the heat to low and add reserved flour. Cook, stirring, until it begins to brown, about 8 minutes.
• In a small bowl combine the stock, water, Worcestershire, vinegar, mustard, molasses and allspice. Add to pan and stir until well incorporated. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to maintain a simmer. Return the pork chops and their accumulated juices to the pan.
• Cover and simmer until the chops are very tender, about 45 minutes, turning the chops halfway through cooking. Serve hot.

SOUTHERN SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS IN BROWN GRAVY

Steps:

• Melt butter in a 3-quart saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook onion and garlic in the butter, stirring occasionally, until is browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove onion and garlic and set aside.
• Stir flour slowly into butter. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until flour is deep brown, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Gradually stir in broth. Add onion, garlic, mushrooms, and parsley. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
• Coat a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Season pork chops with salt and pepper and brown in the hot pan, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Add gravy mixture from the saucepan. Cover and cook over low heat until tender and no longer pink in the centers, 30 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
