Not Your Average Moist and Tender Pork Chops Recipe

We love pork chops. I get tired of the same old so I mix it up now again and then revise. Here is a new revision to an old recipe I have been playing with. Made it for a family dinner Birthday party for DF-I-L's 82nd B-Day. Everyone raved and asked for the recipe. I was very pleased at their enjoyment. I cut the recipe down to a normal family dinner recipe as I cooked it for 18 people. Enjoy:-)
