These Garlic Brown Sugar Pork Chops are such a delicious blend of flavors, and is sure to be a new family favorite!
These Garlic Brown Sugar Pork Chops are full of flavor and oh so juicy. They come together super fast, which makes it perfect for a busy weeknight dinner. Sure to be a huge hit with your family.
I have never been a huge fan or pork chops in the past. Honestly I just think I have always over cooked my pork chops which left then dry and blah! Making sure you cook them to 140 degrees ensures that they are tender and juicy.
Searing the pork chops in a hot skillet first (I use a cast iron pan), not only gives it that fantastic caramelization, but adds to the savory flavor.
With just a few pantry ingredients dinner will be on the table in 30 minutes. This is sure to be a new family favorite.

Recipe Notes
If your using a thinner pork chop just cut back on the cooking time a minute or two.
I purchased two thick pork chops today. Plan on making your Garlic chop recipe tomorrow. I’m a widower so bear with me. I’ll let you know how they come out.
I hope you love them Jerry 🙂
I must have overcooked the sauce. It would not whisk. I added red wine vinegar and it smoothed out again.. However, it clumped up like a burnt mass in my cast iron pan while in the oven.. ugh!
Hmmm Sorry to hear it didn’t work for you. The only thing I can think of is maybe it was way to hot, when you first added the brown sugar.
Can I use boneless pork chops in this recipe?
Yes you can use boneless pork chops but it will cook quicker depending on size. Hope this helps Sabrina 🙂
