About this cut

What it is and how to use it

Loin chops are slices from the long loin along the back, with a section of rib or backbone attached. They are lean and mild with a tender texture and a thin edge of fat. They are the pork chops most people picture, good on the grill, pan-seared, broiled, or baked. Thicker chops are less likely to dry out.

Cook’s tipBrine or season ahead, cook to 145°F, and rest three minutes. A little pink in the center is safe at that temperature.
