O.K., o.k., o.k............I guess I'll be the first one to make this more complicated than it has to be:shock:. Can a "chop" have more than one bone? Or does it have to have a bone at all? Consider it your riddle of the day:roll:.

Could be interesting to see where this question leads by page three:twisted:.

A meat chop is a cut of meat cut perpendicularly to the spine, and usually containing a rib or riblet part of a vertebra and served as an individual portion

Correct!

The chop entry MUST contain a rib bone or it will receive an instant DQ, and the flavor will be selected by the Mod team on this one.

As an FYI, I did read that reference before posing the questions, simply because there are what are referred to as "boneless pork chops", so just making sure.

O.k., that clearly answers the second question. So, can a chop have more than one rib bone? I ask because I have heard them referred to as "double rib chops" for example.

So, how come the "April TD" doesn't include 04/01, 04/02 04/28, 04/29, and 04/30. I have some nice chops I am doing today. No biggie, I don't think they are winner capable...

We traditionally start the Special TD's on Friday like the weekly TD's, hence the date "hiccup". :thumb:

So, would a bone-in rib eye from a rib roast be a chop ?

I can't stop licking my computer screen as a result of the pron! :shock:

So, would a bone-in rib eye from a rib roast be a chop ?

I'm not a mod, but, to me, that is the essence of a rib chop, the steak cut out of a Prime Rib roast, with bone

Now, what if it has two rib bones, then is it still a chop, or is it now a roast?

 

[deguerre]

It's now more than I can eat.

 

[peeps]

Bone in ribeye is acceptable.

 

[ButtBurner]

I cook 2.. Never just one!!!

Don't take any pictures of the second one and you'll be good to go! :thumb:

 

[deguerre]

So, a farkin' pork nugget wouldn't qualify?

That would be the perfect candidate for a Dilly Bar.

NEXT!

Yet, a boneless loin chop is still a chop. They both come from this cut

The definition posted did say "usually", not "always".
