Soimething about using chops or muscle good enough to be ground makes me. . . anxious. In fairness, it's probably an anxiety arising from my wallet; it's never occurred to me to boil a chop. But still, anxious.
I make unsmoked pork broth from bones or unsmoked hocks. My stock needs are not sophisticated, and I think it's marvelous and use it interchangeably with chicken stock applications. [FWIW -- I also make smoked hock stock and smoked neckbone stock, which I definitely do not use interchangeably with chicken stock].
