I often see neck chops in the supermarket, but don't buy them because i don't know what to do with them. Any recipes out there?

Coat them in cornflour, pan fry or grill them til browned. Brown some onion & galic, then casserole in a can of tomatoes, carrot, celery, olives, water, sauces perhaps, on low for at least 2 hours. As turksta suggested, a crockpot overnight is perfect.
Buonissimo ;)

hi there, just on the left is a box headed message board, in the keyword or member box type neck chops, then in the date posted box click on the little arrow and then on anytime, then click search loads of ideas for them there.

I cooked these once in a crockpot, with onion, carrot, celery, tin of tomatoes etc. , problem was that I kept coming across splinters of bone so I didn't feel it was safe to eat them. If it isn't safe for dogs and cats to eat cooked bone splinters it sure as hell isn't safe for humans.

I've eaten them for 50yrs and never had a problem, yummy and safe as. Food as it used to be before the world went mad on plastic packaging and sachet flavours.

The ones I cooked I found it near impossible to get any meat without also getting shattered bone fragments, and having grown up in a house where we had to eat unfilleted fish 3 times a week, with the ever present loaf of bread in the middle of the table to assist choking family members push the bones down, it brought back unpleasant memories. (These were flatheads which have medium through to little almost undetectable bones most of the way down the fish)

You spit them out.

It is not codswallop or even flathseadwallop, all I know is the ones I cooked had shattered bone fragments, it must have been the way they were processed, nobody else seems to have had any problems with them.

That post of mine was meant to be a quote from karenz. I spit them for sure :-)

I found some round neck chops (home kill) in the freezer the other day. I can't remember what they are called. I did them in the slow cooker with mushrooms and a packet of tomato soup mix. Yummy and not a bone chip in sight.

So if you spit "them" (aka bone fragments), it follows that you must get them, so why the codswallop comment?

Is there much meat on them?

If you actually looked at them from the point of view of price vs amount of meat then they may be a bit marginal compared to shoulder chops but they are worthwhile and tasty and have that delightful texture of well cooked tougher cuts where they are sticky and jelly like. Some are better than others for actual meat content so check before buying.

These bring back memories, we used to have them because they were cheap but very tasty. I still love them because they have so much flavour as any meat does when cooked on the bone. No they don't have as much meat as shoulder chops but they are tasty. Never had problems with pieces of broken bone if you get from a good butcher. Mum used to cook them the day B4 then take the fat off the next day (they can be quite fatty) B4 reheating
