The best temperature to bake pork chops depends on the thickness of the meat, how it has been prepared, and personal preferences. The USDA recommends cooking pork chops to an internal temperature of at least 145°F. Here are some temperature and time guidelines from the search results:

• 350°F: bake for 20-30 minutes
• 375°F: bake for 15-25 minutes
• 400°F: bake for 10-20 minutes
• 425°F: bake for 15-20 minutes
• 450°F: bake for 14-16 minutes

It is important to use a meat thermometer to test for doneness, as the bake time will also depend on the thickness of the pork chops. Pork chops should be baked to an internal temperature of 145°F, and then removed from the oven a few degrees before theyre done, as the temperature will continue to rise as they rest (carryover cooking) . Here are some additional tips for juicy pork chops:

• Bake them at high temperature to caramelize the outsides and seal in the juices.
• Dont overcook pork chops. Take them out of the oven when the internal temperature is between 145 and 150°F.
• Let the baked pork chops rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This is the key to moist, juicy pork chops.
• Buy thick-cut pork chops that are at least 1-inch thick. Thin pork chops tend to dry out more easily.
