Not sure where I found this recipe - but discovered it was the same recipe with two different names ! Anyhow it was a new fun Bourbon version. Enjoy!

1½ oz bourbon 
¾ oz sweet vermouth
¾ oz Campari
1 Drunken Cherry, for garnish or cherry 
Add all ingredients to a mixing glass and stir. Serve in a martini glass, garnished with a drunken cherry.

Robke's Famous Pork Chop Martini

 From the TODA Y show Chef  Louis Salvaggio from Robke's restaurant on Long Island.  I love this dish because it takes away all the margin of error with pan-fried pounded pork chops. They're nearly impossible to undercook or overcook, and they soak up that beautiful tangy cherry pepper sauce. This was so good and we can't wait to make it again!  2 (10-ounce) bone-in rib pork chops (we only had boneless) 1/2 cup all-purpose flour  4 eggs, beaten (only used 1) 2 cups fine panko breadcrumbs 1/2 cup olive oil or enough to coat the bottom of a large frying pan  1/4 cup hot and sweet cherry peppers, halved and seeded, plus the juice  1 clove garlic  1 tablespoon red wine vinegar  1 lemon, juiced  1/2 cup chicken broth  salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste  2 tablespoons butter  1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano  1 tablespoon chopped parsley, to garnish 1. Start by trimming and cleaning your pork chops. Pound them...
