🙋 Recipe FAQ's
Can you use the beans straight from the can?
Yes, it is perfectly safe to do so, however, rinsing your beans will reduce the sodium content.
Why did my pork chops come out tough?
Cooking pork chops even a few minutes too long will significantly dry them out which causes them to toughen.
Can I use different cuts of meats for this pork chop recipe?
Yes, you can use pork loin steaks or boneless pork cutlets. Cooking time will differ so pay close attention to temperature.
💭 Tips
- Spraying the inside of your measuring cup with cooking spray will keep the molasses from sticking to the inside.
- The handle of the skillet gets hot fast. Be sure to have your oven mitts ready!
- For easy clean up use a silicone basting brush instead of one with natural bristles.
📖 Variations
- Maple syrup or brown sugar can be substituted for the molasses
- Navy beans can be substituted for the great northern beans.
- Yellow mustard can be used in place of dijon mustard.
- Substitute apple or orange juice for the bourbon.
