Yes, it is filleted off the bone, the same thing ,Pork fillet ,or Fillet of Beef.

Also Pork medallions , small round fillets of Pork.

Answer 2

We do not say pork fillet; we say pork cutlet when ordering in a restaurant..

I have not heard pork fillet used here in Canada or anywhere I have traveled in the United States.

I think pork chop in spanish is chuleta de cerdo.

We have them here Brynn very popular especially with Asians, meat is butchered differently to suit public demand. - ray76, Jan 22, 2011

Answer 3

When I buy pork chops, they always have a length of bone along one side, whereas a pork loinsteak has no bone (and is a much nicer piece of meat). I don't know if that applies universally though, Nila. (I'm in England)

A pork fillet = un filete de cerdo

If it is beef, you just say steak or fillet. If it is ternera, you say veal. - lorenzo9, Jan 22, 2011
