How to tell if stuffed raw pork chops has gone bad
- A sour smell coming off the stuffing, not just the meat
- Stuffing gone wet, packed down, and gray
- A tacky film on the outside of the chop
When in doubt, throw it out.
Heat the stuffing through, not just the pork — the center of the filling is the last place to come up to temperature.
