I remember being astounded when a neighbo told me that when she fixes pork chops for the family (her + 3 males) she always fixed at least a dozen -- four for dad, three for the two boys, and two for her.
When I was a kid everyone got one apiece. I cook one per person. It never occurred to me to have more than one at a meal.
How many do you fix?

If I fixed only one per person, I'd know they'd end up tasting marvelous and I'd want more. If I fixed too many...they'd probably be mediocre. I fix 2 per person, usually? Seems to cover most bases. I love leftovers for breakfast. Goomba

It depends on the size and the way they are cooked. One dish I like to do is a simple one pot meal where a stuffed chop is browned and then simmered in apple juice along with potato, onion and carrot. I use thick chops stuffed with pitted prunes, and one is ample. When I grill them on the BBQ I use very thin chops and it takes at least two of those for a serving. My wife eats a lot more meat than I do. She could easily eat four good sized chops.

How many do you fix?
Hmmmm. Depends on the thickness. I've seen pork chops, the so-called breakfast chops, that are no more than 1/4 inch thick....for dinner 1 chop seems a meager serving and I'd probably plan on at least 2, maybe 3, per adult. Then there are the super-thick chops meant for stuffing where 1 chop is a generous serving. So for the typical chop size, probably about 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick, avg size, 1 chop would seem a normal serving. Your neighbors sound like very carniverous people who eat large quantities of meat.
