What do I do with the extra porkchops?

Question

So I thawed out a package of boneless sirloin pork chops to make us two dinner and it seems I have way too much, 3 lbs. there are like 4 or 5 left over. What do I do with them, cook them all? I don't think I can refreeze them.

Answer 1

Yes, cook them and refrigerate.

Use them tomorrow in pork fried rice, diced.

Answer 2

yes you can if you cook them up....get a box of shake and bake follow recipe on box....freeze left overs..

Answer 3

Pull out two of them to keep real cold in your meat keeper.  In 2 days make another dinner of pork chops.

If you cook them different ways they will always feel like a new meal, pork is very flexible.  It's great cut up in stir fry, barbecue'd with salt & pepper or barbecue sauce, fried, sweet & sour, etc.  Very versatile meat.

You can take the rest of them and bake them in the oven in a baking dish at 350degrees covered in cream of mushroom soup mixed with 1/4 can of milk or water.  Pepper.  Onion slices if you like.  After about 1 hour check them for tenderness.  They should cook until they are very tender. Cool.  Once cooked they will keep in your refrigerator for about 4-5 days. Make rice or mashed or fried potatoes.  Use the cream of mushroom as gravy.

Next time you buy a big pack of pork chops separate them into small bags of 2 before you freeze them.

Answer 4

Why not make a stir fry? Cut the chops into bite size pieces, cut up some onion, carrot, broccoli, etc. and stir fry in some oil. Add teryaki sauce, and serve over rice....  

Answer 5

Yes, cook them and then refreeze them. If you have time, make a few different varieties. You can slice them all and stir fry it, and have it set aside for lunches/dinner the next day.
