Pitkin County Pork Chops

These pork chops come out so moist and tasty. The recipe is easy to prepare and uses ingredients that most people already have on hand. They are quite spicy, I suggest using less cayenne and depending on the type of chili sauce you use, cut the 1/2 cup down to a 1/4 cup (I use a very spicy asian chili sauce). These chops were enjoyed by the whole family including a picky child. This recipe will definitely be put into my regular recipe repitorie!
