Most of my recipes are born from my cravings. And tonight I was craving something crunchy and smoky... so this worked out perfectly! My whole family loved this!

Blue Ribbon Recipe

These are some perfectly moist breaded pork chops. The Panko crumbs and mustard mixture are a real winning combo. Once baked, the crust is crispy and the inside is super tender. Blue Ribbon, indeed.
