Pork, shoulder chops (collar), braised, lean and fat

Pork shoulder chops, also known as collar chops, are cuts of pork from the shoulder area. These figures describe braised chops with both lean meat and fat included. They mainly provide protein and fat: per 100g, they contain 28g of protein and 15g of fat, including 5.5g of saturated fat. They also provide B vitamins and minerals, including zinc and selenium.

Protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. B vitamins help the body release energy from food, while zinc supports normal immune function. The saturated fat content is worth noting for people monitoring their intake. Salt added during cooking or in sauces can change the final salt content.
