This would have been a 5, had I followed the recipe! I didn't have any beef stock, so I used beef bouillon with 1 cup of water. After reducing so much during the cooking, the sauce became so salty it was almost inedible! So... note to others, DO NOT USE BEEF BOUILLON!

I thought this was pretty good. I think I didn't leave the pork chops on long enough because they were a bit tough. However, the actual recipe was good and simple. I will try it again.

This recipe is AWESOME! I first tried it while on a diet, trying to find low-calorie recipes. I thought surely my husband would hate it...he can't get enough of these! I now HAVE to have pork chops frozen at all times so we can thaw them out to cook this recipe on any given day! I also spiced up each pork chop individually and spread them on by hand. I use about double to rosemary and garlic. It helps to cook them in a smaller sized pan so the broth really gets soaked into the chops.

This recipe is delicious! Instead of combining the salt, pepper, and rosemary in one bowl, I sprinkled the chops individually so that the ingredients were evenly distributed.

These were wonderful! The smell alone made my mouth water! Very easy to make. I used a full can of beef broth to simmer them in and then turned into a gravy by whisking some cornstarch into it. Couldn't let that stuff go to waste. So good! The rosemary and garlic worked very well together!

Tasty. I did add some onion powder, that was all. This smelled SO good while it was cooking. Very simple. I'd use this again.

This was a pretty good recipe. I used fresh rosemary instead of the dry and simmered the chops for 1 hour. We will have this again.
