  6. Comments: Pork, always a favorite in the Midwest and the South, gained popularity early in the century. Immigrants from pork-loving countries such as Germany and Poland were crowding the cities and finding which fresh pork, a luxury back home, was abundant and affordable. Recipes of the time called for pan-frying chops, covering them with apples and baking them for an hour or possibly so. But which would leave today"s pork, that is less fatty, very dry. Here, brining is the trick for making pork chops flavorful and juicy.
