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.

I had Googled 'stove top dressing' but I prefer tried and tested. I like
the apple idea too. It goes really well with pork.
