Originating from the need to make tougher cuts of meat tender and flavorful, this cooking method involved slow-cooking the pork chops in a seasoned gravy until they reached a melt-in-your-mouth perfection. These were the kind of pork chops that had the power to bring everyone together around the table, indulging in a meal that was not only comforting but also a way to connect and create lasting memories.
