Oven Baked Bone-In Pork Chops

August 22, 2016 by RecipeTeacher 33 Comments

This recipe for oven baked bone-in pork chops is an absolute all-time favorite! With just 4 ingredients and 30 minutes in the oven, we’ll make the most delicious pork chops you’ll want to make time and time again.

Oven baked pork chop

An easy pork chop dinner recipe

I love making oven baked pork chops because they’re super easy to make and require very little prep, very little cleanup, and since they cook in the oven, you can take care of other things without having to pay constant attention to them. No need to fire up the grill and mess around with a pan. If I have frozen pork chops, I just let them defrost in the refrigerator before work, and they’re ready to cook when I get home.

Delicious pork chops with only 4 simple ingredients

For this recipe we’ll use bone-in pork chops, which naturally are more flavorful and juicy than boneless. The pork chops get seasoned on both sides with some salt and pepper, then rubbed with brown sugar. The brown sugar lends itself perfectly to the natural flavor of the pork to create a sweet and savory flavor you will absolutely love.

Easy to Make Pork chops in the oven

The pork chops will cook low at only 325 degrees F, for 25 minutes, then spend 5 minuted under the broiler. This final step caramelizes the brown sugar and gives the pork chops an awesome flavor and color.

I recommend pork chops that are about 3/4″ thick. Also, be sure to pat them dry with a paper towel before you add the seasonings. This is important. Bake them in a shallow baking dish lined with aluminum. This way cleanup will be easy when those sweet juices drip down.

    These were delicious. I did a few with Allulose instead of brown sugar as i avoid sugar and they still browned nicely. Very tender and juicy.

      Awesome, Traci! Allulose is a great idea for a sugar substitute. Thanks for the feedback!

    My broiler is not working. Will this recipe work if I don’t broil the pork chops for the last 5 minutes?

      Yes indeed. You just won’t get that nice caramelization on top.

    I just made these pork chops for dinner and I was a little skeptical at first. I have cooked pork chops in the oven before and they always came out dry and tough. These were the most flavorful, tender, and juiciest pork chops I have ever made. This recipe is definitely a keeper!

    I just went through chemo and radiation for cancer on my tongue. I cannot tolerate any hot spices, not even pepper. By leaving these two ingredients out will the rest of the recipe make for a good, juicy pork chop? Would I follow all the same directions for cooking?

      Hi Janet. Wishing you all the best as you go through this. Yes, you can absolutely leave the pepper out. The process will still be the same.

    This was an easy and very delicious way to make pork chops. The only thing I changed was to add large slices of onion to each pork chop. This was well like by all in the family and will definitely be making again!

    If not bone in, should they bake longer?

    Well I made these pork shops tonight and I must admit I was a little apprehensive, because I didn’t see anything to put on the pork chops to keep them from sticking. But, they were moist and delicious! My wife just started this keto diet and I am trying cook things that keep her on her goal. She really enjoyed them so mission accomplished. Thanks for the recipe.

    I made this dish tonight. Did have quite a bit of smoke from my broiler for a few minutes but it was worth it! The chops were perfectly cooked and delicious. This will be come a main stay for pork chop dinners.
    Thank you.

    This recipe calls for 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, but the instructions only say to rub on “cup a half teaspoon”…where’s the disconnect?

      Thank you for pointing that out Adrian. The recipe has been corrected. It calls for 2 total teaspoons of brown sugar with 1/2 teaspoon rubbed on each side of the pork chops.
