Cranberry Pork Chops

Melissa, I'm so thrilled that you're here

The first recipe we're going to do with this precious angel today, y'all

is pork chops with a cranberry mustard. Mustard, yes. Which sounds so good

So I'm going to shut up. I'm going to try to shut up

And turn it over to Melissa. All right, well, I thought that we could use fresh cranberries

I'm trying to use as many things from farmer's markets as I can right now

One of her hobbies, y'all, is going to farmer's market and finding fresh foods

One cup of water. Okay. And just a little sugar. One cup

I like this girl already. How's that look? That looks great. Just a little, you know

Just a little. I want to just melt this up a little bit before we pop pop this in

Well, just put me to work and you tell me. You want pop this in there? I will

I will. It's just four cups of cranberries. I love fresh cranberries

They're so beautiful. And y'all, they're so easy. You just put them in sugar water and cook them down

So good. And there no comparison between this and a canned cranberry sauce I see you chopping up a half a cup of pecans Now when are you gonna put those in At the end so they keep their crunch These things are just ready to rock Uh

They are ready to rock. Oh, that looks so beautiful. Don't those look fabulous

And I'm going to peep in here at your cranberries. Oh, look how good that looks

Oh, that looks amazing. And this is going to be wonderful along with that pork, y'all

And I like the contrast of the Dijon with the cranberries. I'm going to do the cranberries

Okay. We're going to do a quarter of a cup. Quarter of a cup of the cranberries

Thank you. Watch your fingers. And then we do four teaspoons of Dijon mustard

One, two, three, four. I usually do about four pork chops, around six ounces with the bone

I love the looks of your pork chops, girl. That is right. I like to just paint it on

Oh, good. Yeah. Well, I'm going to wash my hands because I picked up your fork

So I just paint this on both sides. Okie doke. I'll flip those for you. Great

Thank you. Well, I understand that you're single. Why do you ask

I just happen to know someone that's single. Really? Yes. And enjoys the kitchen Really And loves to exercise Sounds like me I hoping Bobby Are you talking to somebody Yeah Well maybe

Okay, okay. I'm open. So I'm trying to get Bobby on the phone

to see if maybe he can come taste your pork chops. Okay. Oh, that would be great

Yeah, I love to cook for friends and family. And I try to use things out of my garden

Oh, that's wonderful. And I have them help me. I want to go out to the garden to get herbs. I want to hear what else is in your garden

I have an herb garden. I love my herbs. It's so beautiful

Love that. I have artichokes. I had no idea. So this is probably good

Now, how long are we going to let that marry? Overnight would be best, I think, yeah

That's great. And then I sprayed this pan here with cooking spray for the pork chops

It's been sitting for a little over an hour. Yeah. And we're just going to drop these in

Look at that, y'all. Those are going to be delicious. Oh, I love the way they're looking

You can smell the mustard, too. Oh, I love it. Good. And these are ready to flip

These are nice and brown. Oh, they're beautiful. They look beautiful. Mm

Oh, it's good, right? Oh, good job. Mm, God, they smell so great. There you go

Thank you. Pop one of those on there? Yes. I like to put a little hot cranberry sauce

in the cranberry sauce that I made before. I got it Watch your back pretty lady This is hot Thank you And I just throw that on top there May I Melissa I share with you

Okay. And we'll let the boys share. We need some mussel sprouts on there. Because we weren't prepared for company, were we? No

You girls were going to eat these four pork chops? Yeah. I doubt it. I doubt it

And then we were, yeah, we were going to go running. I doubt it. Is that enough

Well, yes, that is enough. Listen, Bobby, y'all can share. Y'all can have a personal, intimate dinner together
