Measuring pork chop

Pork chops are sold with the bone in or out, and the scale does not care which. A bone-in chop includes the bone in its weight, so the weight on the scale is not the weight of meat. The figures are for boneless chops with lean and fat together. USDA names the cooked record "Pork, fresh, loin, center loin (chops), boneless, separable lean and fat, cooked, pan-broiled". A trimmed fat cap means your plate holds a little less than the row shows. The USDA ARS cooking yield for pan-broiled boneless chops is 80 percent. It comes from one sample and varies with the cooking method, so treat it as a rough guide.

For more precision, weigh the cooked meat off the bone. 'One pan-broiled pork chop' uses the USDA chop weight of 137 g, so a chop of another size will be off. Chops usually come with a green vegetable or mashed potato, and each is its own item.

How many calories in a boneless pork chop?

One pan-broiled boneless chop is 314 kcal at the USDA chop weight of 137 g. A chop of another size scales by weight, so weigh yours. The cooked record is 229 kcal per hundred grams.

How much does a pork chop weigh after cooking?

USDA ARS lists 80 percent for pan-broiled boneless center loin chops: the cooked weight was that percent of the raw weight. It is one sample and varies with the cooking method. Weigh your own chop before and after for your pan.
