Crispy Deep Fried Pork Chops



Hello There Everyone,

One of the items on our menu for dinner tonight is pork chops. Like many people I like my pork chops fried and served with or without a nice basic and favored corn starch sauce. However, I am also a great fan of deep frying. Yet at the time I started deep frying there were no recipe for frying pork chops in a deep fryer. So using the good old trial by error method I came up with a recipe for just this purpose.

A note on using and purchasing deep fryers, I highly suggest purchasing a large deep fryer and not the smaller one. These fryers are good for college kids and single persons, but for your average size family or persons like me who loves tossing together different food items to create, make, and bake delicious meals.

The smaller ones are attractive and cost as low as $20.00. However, it is the larger deep fryers that will be the greater value in terms of cost, durability and longevity over time. 

There are many brands, such as Hamilton Beach Professional-Style Deep Fryer, Aroma Smart Fry XL 4-Quart Digital Dual-Basket Deep Fryer, and Presto Stainless Steel Dual Basket Pro Fry Immersion Element Deep Fryer just to name a few.

Now for the recipe.
