Step-By-Step Instructions

Step 1 Season the Pork Chops

Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel. Season both sides generously with salt. If you prefer lightly seasoned carnivore recipes, salt alone is enough. For more flavor, add black pepper or smoked salt.

Step 2 Sear and Cook

Heat butter or tallow in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and sear until golden on both sides. Lower heat and continue cooking until the internal temperature reaches your preferred doneness. This method creates Juicy Tender Pork Chops every time.

Step 3 Make an Optional Drizzle

Remove the pork chops and add butter to the same pan. Let it bubble lightly. Add a splash of cream or broth if you prefer a richer coating. Spoon the sauce over the chops before serving.
