Not being a fan of apples in stuffing, I'd leave that out. I've never
added bacon... hmmmm. Otherwise I completely agree. Cooking time
depends on the thickness of the pork chops.
But yes, add about 1 Tbs. of butter and hot chicken stock to the
stuffing. Stir well until moistened. Add the stock gradually!
This is sound advice from Doris. The method works well whether you use
a bag dried stuffing, use Stove Top (boxed mix) or bake and dry your own
bread. The herbs are important, too.
