The pork chops were a bit overcooked, but the provolone and tarragon vinaigrette was very tasty. I think I'll try cooking the pork chops for a shorter amount of time next time.

The pork chops were a bit tough, but the provolone and tarragon vinaigrette was very good. I think I'll try cooking the pork chops in a slow cooker next time to see if that helps.

The pork chops were a bit dry, but the provolone and tarragon vinaigrette were very tasty. I think I'll try marinating the pork chops next time to see if that helps.
