Southern-Inspired Pork Chop
From an American food luminary
“This dish captures the American South, today. This moment. This season. That sense of place, right here on your plate.”
From pasture to plate
About chef Sean Brock
Countless award-winning restaurants, James Beard Awards, and New York Times-Bestselling books later, Sean is rightly revered as a luminary of American food and a champion for Southern foodways and hospitality.

“Schooled in the soil, the cycles, the seasons—I learned that nature is the best teacher. And 'if it grows together it goes together.' When to pick and when to preserve...that deeply Southern wisdom was as true then as it is now.”
Traditions made modern
In his dish for Freshly, those same traditions of foraging, planting, and preserving live on in a signature touch of sassafras—a native plant that Sean grew up digging in the mountains. Made from the dried and ground leaves of the sassafras tree, it adds a piquant touch—somewhere between earthy citrus and anise—to a trio of roasted late-summer mushrooms.
Solidarity in community, community through food
