Pork chops are the most popular cut from pork loin. According to its origin, there is a variety of names for pork chops including loin, rib, sirloin and shoulder chops.

It is important to note that all pork chops are cooked in the same way. The cooking time, fundamentally, depends on the thickness of the cut, which ranges from 2 to 5 centimeters. It does not matter if you choose boneless chops for convenience or chops with bone for its attractive appearance – the cooking time will always be the same.
