My question is who doesn't like to eat a juicy pork chop? I guess that very few people if any. Chops are kind of your other white meat, that is if you select a cut that is not too fatty or if you do, you clean all the fat from the chops before seasoning. I guess that what made my chops so juicy this time was the red wine reduced sauce. Try it!
