When it comes to pork chops, bigger is better. The Snake River Farms Kurobuta double bone pork chop is cut thick to include two bones from a rack of pork. The result is a pork chop like no other. Large in size and huge in flavor, each double bone pork chop is a beautiful entrée pan seared or stuffed and baked. These unique chops are 100% Kurobuta, also known as Berkshire, with a rich crimson color, fine marbling, and full of juicy flavor.
You may see variation in size with our natural pork chops. Each bone-in rack contains 10 to 12 bones. Each double bone chop is hand-cut to include two bones and the normal taper of each rack produces some chops larger than others. We specify a minimum size of 12 oz. and the chop weight can increase from the target.
“Highly Recommended. Tasters raved about these reddish-pink chops’ extremely juicy, tender texture and “intense pork-y flavor…” "-- Cooks Illustrated

Pork chops are cut from the pork loin. This section of the hog is similar to the beef loin in both anatomy and the fact that tenderest cuts are sourced from this primal. The primary muscle that is found in chops is thelongissimus dorsi.
Fast fact: The loin is the source of the most tender cuts of pork which is the origin of the term “high on the hog.”
