The âFiniâ flight tradition was first officially noted during the Vietnam war, when the aircrew commemorated the completion of 100 missions. The 100th safe last-landing was a reason to celebrate, but it is now usually a separate flight altogether marking the final flight before retirement.
First the pork chops are dipped in a mixture of milk and egg, then they are coated with corn bread stuffing mix. The chops are baked at 425 degrees F for 20 minutes or until the chops reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. Allow chops to stand for 3 minutes at room temperature before serving.
Press 1/2 cup stuffing into each pork-chop pocket, mounding it at opening. Fit chops into a foil baking pan and cover with foil. Freeze until ready to use, or bake, covered, at 400 degrees for 40 minutes, then uncovered for 20 minutes. To bake frozen pork chops: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place covered pan in oven and cook for 45 minutes. Remove foil and continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer reads 165 degrees when inserted into the chop, about another 40 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.
