Stuffed Pork Chops - Food Wishes

[@kf7770]

Chef John is just THE best.

[@peternystrom921]

He is Chef John, so ofc he is the best 😊

[@PacoRobbins]

Say it again for the people in the back.

[@marctouss1862]

yep...love him...

[@WNYXeb777]

LOL. Was thinking I need to type this -- then I scrolled down!!!! Nice!👍

[@gymeni]

I forgot to come back and comment on this dish. Chef John, these chops were perfection, thank you! I walked into my local chain market, “where shopping is a pleasure” I’ve heard it said, and found a couple of packs of these big chops readily available. I would make this again in a heartbeat, even though it’s a little more kitchen work than I tend to want to do. Oh! One thing, I needed way more than was provided of that delicious sauce! Folks, do yourself a favor and make more of it!

[@КрасныйКайзер]

“Which reminds me, hopefully no one is watching” Had a good laugh at that, thanks Chef John!

[@Gigi-fv9ky]

This looks like the most delicious pork chop ever. Chef John, you need a cookbook, which would be huge, of all your recipes because I love the videos and they are the best tool for understanding, but I forget, so having both would be perfect.

[@pumpkinheadghoul]

Yes, but with a cook book we'd miss that awesome roller coaster cadence in the what he speaks. NO ONE speaks like Chef John. When you hear it from anywhere in the house, you instantly know who it is.

[@jamesdooling4139]

This would have been a recipe I showed my husband immediately and likely cooked tonight for dinner after a frenzied trip to the market. Sadly, he had a stroke on May 8th and I've been MIA from your channel since then. It was a stroke caused by hypertension... By my cooking and feeding him a Pharoah's diet for 17 years. My meals took him from 137 lbs to 181... He's in a rehab for two more weeks while we outfit a new house into a medical ward. It may be years before I cook a decent meal again. But, I'll always be a fan and wish for the days of delicious Food Wishes come true. All my best.

[@marthas.5092]

Hang in there. Thanks for sharing your story.

[@neesargon3497]

Excellent! I have cooked pork chops in the oven and roasted halved nectarines beside them. The most fantastic combination. Good one, John. ❤️

[@ladywolfwolf]

Chef John, your voice is amazing. Your recipes are too. I've already made our dinner but, when I saw your video, I dimply watched it for the voice and cadence.

[@leahduffett1982]

I made this tonight and I think it is one of the best things I've ever made! Thank you Chef John!

[@LifesPeachy321]

Did you do the pan sauce as he did or did you use the other recommendations he suggested? Thanks : )

[@svfrey7]

Instead of parsley in the stuffing, I would HIGHLY recommend using sage. Complements pork way better and has lots more flavor that will hold up after cooking!

[@barbramighall4518]

I agree!

[@sandrastreifel6452]

Sage is stronger, though. Requires discretion!

[@magoolew5131]

Try some well smashed up or ground fennel seeds. That goes well with pork too. I usually just crush the seeds up and melt it with butter and slather it on the pork chops on the grill.

[@artmentor-chrishendrix1724]

It was thyme

[@manf442]

Chef John, Thanks for your recipe. I changed it a slightly. I fried the bacon bits, added red onion, sage, oregano some butter, bread crumbs and chicken stock and used pineapple that I already had cut up in my fridge. Stuffed the chop(with bone in) and dipped in egg and then flour / panko. Seared in fry pan using Avocado oil. Finally in the oven at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. I was the best pork chop Ive ever had, my eyes were rolling over. A salad and corn on the cob made it the last gourmet meal of 2020. (I left the lobster in the freezer). Thanks again... I used your ideas as the basis for mine.

[@jackschitt7783]

Tried this tonight. Family loved it! I added bell peppers, cucumbers, and jalapenos to the stuffing and used the peach juice instead of broth. I also added brown sugar to the vinaigrette sauce. Cheese Roux Steamed Spinach and Cauliflower and scalloped potatoes on the side. Delicious! Plates were served loaded and all of them got cleared. No leftovers.

[@poulthomas469]

Made this with apple instead of peach and it really is a great pork dish.

[@BaseReality]

5:58 My eyes did not perceive that as a light pair of trousers......and I was wondering whether searing pork chops in only a pair of tighty whities was really a wise thing to do.

[@myes344]

[@susisusinger8216]

you got bamboozled!

[@gmoops8986]

Perhaps his attention was diverted, and he made it back that far.

[@raccontourahara7868]

XD

[@marcwa74]

Made this last night! Hands down one of the best things I’ve ever cooked! The combo of the stuffing, the pork chop and the pan sauce, hit every taste bud on my tongue! Thanks 🙏!!

[@LifesPeachy321]

Did you do the pan sauce as he did or did you use the other recommendations he suggested? Thanks : )

[@marcwa74]

@@LifesPeachy321 I made the balsamic pan sauce and left bits from the stuffing that had fallen out to add some added flavor. Then poured the sauce through a strainer and used that. This meal is best when peaches are at the tail end of when they’re in season. It is really is a perfect dish! FYI, make sure you check the pork temp in more than one location. Stuffed pork can be a little tricky with doneness

[@LifesPeachy321]

@@marcwa74 Thanks for all the tips! Much appreciated : )

[@lindahrushanyk83]

I made this for dinner last night and I have to say this recipe is awesome! I used boneless pork chops from the butcher and my stuffing I used jalapeno and plain bread crumbs. The pork chops were beyond tender and the stuffing flavor amazing. I served the sauce on the side. Thank you for sharing a great recipe!

[@chillytoes337]

I love stuffed pork chops but I've never thought of trying it with diced peaches! Gotta try this one, it made my mouth water just watching you cook it! Thanks for the vid!

[@closetpan]

Thank you for the video, the cutting technique was helpful. Stuffing with Italian bread crumbs and muffuletta was awesome.

[@hopinandbeliefin]

I made this last night. The stuffing after being baked in the pork and topped with the pan sauce has incredible depth of flavor. I used a bone-in chop and it worked fine. There was actually an extra area I was able to get stuffing into. I thought the pocket making and stuffing would be difficult, but it really wasn’t. The pan sauce too was the most perfect I’ve executed: thick, rich, glossy, and balanced. THIS IS A GREAT RECIPE! 💯

[@jaymaxwell8645]

Dear Chef John. We made this for lunch today. It is probably the most flavor complex thing that I have eaten and made. It turned out delicious and the sauce added a delightful extra level.

[@sortathesame8701]

I made this last night and it was FABULOUS! All four of us loved it and the guys said they would eat this at least once a month. Served the chops with mashed potatoes and peas.

[@Namesi]

This looks perfect John, really good recipe.

[@Tina37212]

Agreed. I would serve this with pickled red cabbage.

[@kathyeubanks5524]

Tina37212 YES, ma’am!

[@kevincostello1319]

Apple - sage - onion - garlic stuffing!

[@stephenveerasammy3074]

Thank you!

[@cameron4994]

And cider!

[@johngore1135]

Chef, I just made your peach stuffed pork chops. Wow! They were wonderful. After stuffing I let them sit in the fridge overnight and they were tender and delicious. Thanks.

[@kinjunranger140]

Salisbury steak with gravy Wednesday night. And baked/stuffed chops with pan sauce Saturday night. Great week CJ. thanks

[@broll-5260]

I do a stuffed porkchop similar. Instead of peach I use apple, dried cranberries, anf toasted pecans.

[@keithhanley7796]

Very nice.

[@judyjohnson9610]

I would do that. I find peaches too sweet. But fruit does go well with pork

[@Hoaxer51]

Barry Healey, Mmm!

[@Tastychronicles]

I am in awe with this Stuffed Pork Chop recipe. Happy you reminded us of an old fashioned way to make a stuffing. The fact that you used peaches in the stuffing took it to a whole new level. I am definitely going to make this recipe. Thank you Chef John.

[@Mustgtcs07]

If you guys haven't tried making this, you really need to get going. I followed his recipe EXACTLY and it was amazing!!! I wasn't sure about the sauce at first, but WOW, was it good!!!

[@ppageau]

Made this last night and learned the magical way to stuff anything now! I like that you encourage us to put our own spin on recipes. I’m a big fan now and have made a plethora of dishes....especially love the cheese crackers.

[@1951kvk]

You are the BEST, better than all the rest! My mom used to make these when we were growing up and they were our favorite pork dish.

[@alphafert608]

This vid shows up in my feed just after getting back from the grocery store. I was a bit bummed because it looks good. When I see it's bacon and peaches I was seriously thinking of going back.

[@kimberlyrobinson3992]

I know. I’m starting to learn to place my grocery delivery order AFTER Friday night when I watch Chef John.

[@alphafert608]

I work in a grocery store so I really only had to wait a day (more like 2 I'm not cooking today). We are encouraged to engage the customers. Sometimes it's hard to give a complete recipe but when it's as easy as saying "look up food wishes on you tube" it's less intrusive as I don't have to write stuff down. I do regularly hand out tips & many I have learned here. "Do you know how to sex an eggplant" is a fantastic conversation starter. There has also been a few times someone is looking for ingredients to a food wishes recipe or better yet when someone references the show & they realize you get the reference.

[@rosedolch8637]

Same!! I just got home from the store and now after watching this I realize the only thing I dont have for this recipe is a peach and some bacon!!

[@woofljh]

Made this yesterday, the family loved it! Also made a side of your southern green beans. Those were outstanding!

[@marthas.5092]

So, we had this for dinner tonight. Grilled the chops. Got the bone-in type. We felt like we were eating a gourmet meal. Really good, except the kids didn’t really eat it, but that is typical for them. I was worried I wouldn’t like the sauce and it was really incredible.

[@LandNfan]

And as always, I WILL enjoy! I’ve never had a bad meal with a Chef John meal, and never failed to chuckle while watching your videos. Thanks!

[@greenrockgarden2851]

I made these stuffed with apples, dried cranberries and the bacon. So yummy! Thank you Chef!

[@kght222]

my mom does this all the time, with thanksgiving and new years stuffing (we eat turky on those days in my family, ham is christmas) that ends up frozen along with frozen turkey broth made from those cooks. but she straight up butterflies the pork chips. i have tried several times to show her how to cut it for this stuffing, but hell, since when can a 35 year old tell a 71 year old anything. they still taste great if a bit dry.

[@miroslawgad4269]

Watching your videos is extremely therapeutic. At least for me. Keep doing them and thx.

[@jenniferbogenschutz5215]

How come we can never see you Chef John? I Love all of your recipes!! Would liketo see you!

[@wizeacr867]

Thank you for this Chef John! I make it at least once every week or two. I use apple instead of a pear but it’s delicious! Do you have any other recipes for stuffed pork? And I tell my family “if you don’t put a towel on that hot handle, there is a 100% chance you will burn yourself” every time I make it!

[@updownstate]

My friend and I choose a recipe every week. We've already decided on butter garlic pork tenderloin for next week so in a month probably we'll make this. This looks even better than the other but let's not get confused. :) Chef John, helping weary Americans get through life one meal at a time.

[@Diamondsareforever1603]

Thanks for restaurant style recipe ! For some reason I think it does tastes better when someone else makes it to you 🙂

[@BrenTravisMusician]

Just found the channel, listened to Chef John for two videos and I'm hooked! Great presentation and the narration is addictive.

[@tomnoddy1]

This came out really well. I added minced garlic to my stuffing, which really amped up the flavor. Everyone raved about it.

[@JoeNurse-n3m]

I made it yesterday for Sunday dinner. I followed the recipe as close as I could, and it was delicious. I will repeat it but next time I will use granny smith apples.

[@skylarrupp9624]

Made these last night. Seriously awesome and impressive. there was nothing left...

[@FedUpSouthernGirl]

GA peaches in the summertime means this is on the menu (so long as the grocery stores actually have thick cut chops). Wonderful

[@bentleyr00d]

South Carolina peaches are better.

[@FedUpSouthernGirl]

@@bentleyr00d blasphemy. Repent now. 😜

[@Lilly_Olivia_R]

Chef John this was an incredibly tasty juicy pork chop! Even my picky eater loved it. I used apples instead of peaches. Amazing! Thank you.

[@bug-kong]

Oh heck yeah! I love your work chef john!

[@calissasquid]

I picked up a stuffing insertion technique from Alton Brown that has worked very well for me that made things a cleaner and easier. loop the tip end off of a syringe (med to lg/30ml to 100ml) and use what is left of the tube and plunger to fill the cavity. While I care little for the small improvement in clean and easy side, it also keeps the required opening size much smaller so more stuffing stays put while cooking.

[@albieatsworld3744]

I don't think I ever attempted any of Chef John's recipes, yet I have been here for like 9 years :D Also, to whomever is reading this, sending lots of love to all you foodies! Take care and be safe! Just started my own food/travel channel. Any feedback would be highly appreciated!

[@nobitsnoshoes]

does buying all the ingredients count? i've done it more than a few times & then didn't feel like cooking. lol

[@AnnaReed42]

If you haven't tried his inside-out grilled cheese sandwich, what are you doing with your life?

[@MrJynxi]

Hi chef John. Found your channel a few months ago. Since then I have made about 5 recipes of yours. Because your videos are well presented and easy to follow, everything came out pretty well as shown. So thank you for all the great food and videos.

[@jlejmr98]

My husband sent me this video... made it for supper this evening and there was nothing left over - even the kids finished off their entire pork chop! I'll be adding it to my recipe box. 👍

[@alancleveland7623]

As always you make delicious look so easy. I know this will be a winner with the family!

[@sortathesame8701]

Made it last night and it really was easy! Took a bit to cut everything up, but other than that it was easy and fast!

[@bennichols8113]

I watch a lot of cooking on KZbin but Chef John just hits different

[@veronicaisworthy7465]

So glad I came across this recipe... If I hadn't watched I would have immediately cut into the wrong side of the pork chop🤦🏾‍♀️... Also the pocket trick is a great idea. It allows me to sear the pork without all the stuffing falling out thanks!

[@sheshickey]

Cooked this tonight and absolutely adding this to our repertoire. Thank you Chef John. Easy prep and tasty as all get out. We've got some delectable plums growing in our North Bay yard which I'm going to substitute for the peaches next time we prepare this dish. Which will be very, very soon.

[@alanmcdonald5437]

I made this last night. It turned out great. I forgot the pepper , by accident. It was much easier to hollow out the chops than it appears. Its a keeper!!

[@michaelcunningham4587]

I LOVE YOU CHEF JOHN!

[@brainwashingdetergent4322]

Chef John is 💯% correct when it comes to the covering the 4th degree burning hot handle!!!

[@TheMillennialGardener]

I am going to make this, or something very close to this. I am not a pork chop fan in most cases, but this looks really good. A stuffed pork chop is a good thing.

[@swirleynoise2424]

Thank you Chef. i made this dish tonight. A slight variation, but as you said this is more of a technique video. perfect technique. you are definitely professor of KZbin university cooking!

[@michaeldion8798]

I know what I'm making for our family dinner this weekend!!!

[@mariaroqueta3135]

Please please please chef John- do a video with LIVER!!! I’m in need of a new recipe that’s yumm in addition to the usual liver & onions. Thanks!♥️👏♥️

[@TemplarTate]

He did do "Dirty dirty rice" which used liver.

[@710LENNY]

Try slicing it in long strips and stir fry it with onions, garlic and mushrooms - do shrooms and onions first, remove from pan and then do liver BRIEFLY. I have a really great basic asian sauce I use on anything. Serve over rice.

[@serenityrahn5656]

@@710LENNY - that sounds good! Sometimes i fry some bacon, do the liver BRIEFLY, and eat liver and bacon.

[@Whatsinanameanyway13]

I've done this with an apple/onion/sage stuffing with a cider based sauce that turned out amazing. Now I want to try the peach version here.

[@ianrobinson2689]

Just made this with apple for the stuffing, best pork dish ever

[@artsbeatla]

Excellent. Thank you Chef John. I now know what I am cooking for my guy's birthday dinner this weekend. Now to find a decent cut of meat...

[@StoshGalumpke]

Just made this for Sunday dinner and the Chef's recipe works perfect ! YUMM !! Mine were a little smaller than Chef's, and if yours are too, then check around 12 or 13 minutes for done ...

[@breezeaire]

I might try my jerky caulking gun for the fun part. Stuffing the meat. Yummy. Love your narration and side banter.

[@cgirl111]

I've found slicing perpendicular to the crease works better. I switched directions about a year ago.

[@Chesirecat111]

Wow, I just made this for dinner tonight. I screwed it up at pretty much every step, and yet it still turned out amazingly delicious. I can only imagine how good it is if you do it right!

[@Grayald]

My cat curled up on the sofa and watch this entire video with intent, and then when it was over, he looked over at me as if to say "can I have that?"

[@korpse7257]

Wow! Mission accomplished, I'm hungry and I now want to attempt to make this!

[@lwmoss1]

This is on this weekends menu. Not sure if I can get peaches, if not, apples & maybe some walnuts will make for a good substitute (should I add cinnamon & allspice as well?) Publix butcher for 1.5" bone in chops. Seared on the Blackstone, smoked in the Pit Boss... Just have to work on my pan sauce. Great video... Thanks for the inspiration.

[@liyeesim366]

This looked simply delicious... going to try making this!!! 😋😋😋. Thx chef John

[@bandiceet]

I realise this may be a bit of an odd thing to admit, but I want to get one of those stainless steel fry pans Chef John has in this video, the type that can go from stove top to oven, for no other reason than to have one like Chef John. I already do have a pan that can handle both the stove and oven, it is cast iron, which cooks very differently than stainless steel...
