Variants:
Spicy Kick: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the flour mixture or the gravy for a spicy twist.

Vegetarian Option: For a vegetarian version, replace the pork chops with large portobello mushrooms and follow the same frying steps.
FAQ:
Q: Can I use boneless pork chops instead of bone-in?
Yes! Boneless pork chops work just as well. Keep an eye on the cooking time since they may cook a bit faster than bone-in chops.
Q: Can I make the bacon gravy ahead of time?
Yes! You can prepare the bacon gravy ahead of time and store it in the fridge. When you’re ready to serve, simply reheat it on the stovetop, adding a splash of milk if it has thickened too much.
Q: How do I prevent the gravy from being lumpy?
To avoid lumps in the gravy, add the milk slowly and whisk constantly while pouring. Make sure the flour is fully incorporated with the bacon drippings before adding the milk.
