Pork chops have a bad reputation because people buy very thin chops and cook them to 165 degrees. They are delicious and juicy if you buy 1" thick chops, and cook them to the USDA-recommended 145 degrees. Treat them like you would a steak, and be vigilant about taking their temperature as they cook, and they won't be dry at all.
