About
A pork chop is a cut of domestic pig meat that is slightly denser than an equal volume of water.
Pork chop meat has a typical density of about 65.5 pounds per cubic foot (1.05 g/mL). Because muscle tissue is made mostly of water and compact protein, it takes up slightly less space than water of the same mass. A standard 1-cup measure holds roughly 8.7 ounces (248 grams) of trimmed, boneless meat. Its mass and volume closely mirror other dense cuts of lean red meat and poultry.
From Wikipedia
A pork chop is a thick slice of meat cut from the domestic pig, particularly one adjacent to a rib and usually served with it. It may be cooked in many ways, the simplest being fried or grilled, plain or coated with flour and dipped in egg and breadcrumbs.
