Buyer's guide
Chops vary in size from smaller foreloin chops (or cutlets), through to the middle loin chops, both of which have the bone in. Chump chops are boneless and the biggest of the three. They all come from the loin and can be cooked in the same way as loin. They're also good braised; browning the meat first in a hot frying pan will caramelise the naturally occurring sugars on the surface of the meat and add flavour to the finished dish.
Preparation
At the simplest, season, pan-fry, grill or roast your chops. Deglaze the frying pan or roasting tin with cider, wine, apple juice or balsamic vinegar for an instant gravy; add a splash of cream or crème fraîche, some mustard and a knob of butter for a richer sauce. As with all meat, leave the chops to rest for a few minutes before eating.
