Page 3 - Baked Pork Chops

page 3

A classic.  A baked chop in a savory tomato sauce.  I love the word "chop".  Steaks, Chops, Cocktails - I'll always happily enter an establishment with those words on the awning.

The recipe credit, Table Talk, on W.K.A.P, Sammy Anderson, is so amazingly specific, it deserves research.  Sammy Anderson was a radio announcer on Leigh Valley radio stations starting back in the 1920's although he didn't work for WKAP until 1966.  He worked there for decades, and even after retiring was brought back in 1998 to spin the oldies but goodies for his long term fans.   He finally passed away in 2002, and from his obituary sounds like a lovely man.

I love how specific Grandma Worman was in her record keeping.  A lesser woman would have said "from the radio," but Florence knew the program, the station, and the announcer.
