Veal Chops

Did a couple of veal chops for dinner last night. These came from the Buthcer's Son and were PDG!

Just used a little S&P then cooked them indirect at 350* dome for about 20 minutes to get the IT up to 115*. Gave them 1 1/2 minutes per side on my CI griddle (with a little butter) to finish them off. Served with some mushrooms sauteed in a little butter and red wine along with some roasted potatoes and salad. Did not get a pic to show doneness but they were a beautiful medium rare.

Well, "spa-Peggy" is kind of like spaghetti. I'm not sure what Peggy does different, if anything. But it's the one dish she's kind of made her own.

    Oh my god! Those look awesome. Last time I had a veal chop was at Del Friscos down here and I was crying with every bite.

    I need to do some up soon.

    Guess I did not understand your question. Thought you meant difference? They were very tasty; well marbled and tender.

    Nice, haven't visited the Butcher's Son yet, do you need to preorder? Curious about your CI griddle too, do I see fire through it? not that I need it since I've got two pieces of 44W (A36 equivalent) from a metal place in scarburia.

    The griddle is an old one that I picked up (can't remember when or where) that was designed for a Coleman gasser.

    @Canugghead, the fire was from the pats of butter that I'd put on the chops for searing.

    No need to pre-order for the Buthcer's Son unless you want some of their specialty meat (e.g., ostrich) or have a specific item or two that you're looking to get. We just went in and picked from what they had in the display counter. Tried to get as close to $200 as we could and actually came up to $199.60 something. The girl told us to take a couple of biscotti's which took our total to $200.29. She did not ask for the extra .29.

    It sat under the plate setter during the indirect so, did not take long to ramp up.

    Looks excellent to say the least! A rare veal chop is hard to beat. Nicely done. =D>

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.
