L. Russell Allen, IV @rustyincbus.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Monday: Probably my favorite F&W recipe: Pork chops with apples, bacon, mustard. I LOVE pork and we had just gone apple picking. Only problem here is no pan can fit 4 pork chops, so the recipe only works if you use two pans; hard to keep everything cooking evenly. www.foodandwine.com/pork-chops-w...foodandwine.comOne-Pan Pork Chops With Apples and Bacon Screams Sweater WeatherThis creamy pork chops with apples recipe features thick-cut bacon and a creamy mustard sauce for a quick and easy 30-minute dinner. 100
