Pork Chops with the SV
YukonRon
Posts: 17,261
@bgebrent inspired me with his last pork chop cook, watching Nicole doing all the work.
There is a restaurant in South western Kentucky called Patti's 1880 Settlement, in a town close to LBL, called Grand Rivers.
It is famous for their 2" pork chop, which is very good, and pretty well known across the country with hunters and fishers.
I am trying to do better than theirs, using SV, then searing.

Nice looking chops. I've seen those little white balls before (and not from Brent at BB). How well do they work and are they worth it?------------------------------

They are ok. I also made a cheap cover from and aluminum foil pan. Using both, there has been zero temp differation. Stayed right at 145F.tarheelmatt said:

I bet those are gonna turn out well. Not knowing much about the SV, I gotta ask, what is the purpose of the ping pong ball looking things?

Home run Ron! SV poke chops are the perfect match. You killed it.Sandy Springs & Dawsonville Ga

Totally agree, but next time, I am doing them to 135, and finishing on the egg with a little smoke. This is a great piece of equipment. I did chicken breasts for a Caesar Salad last week, just killer. Best ever.bgebrent said:Home run Ron! SV poke chops are the perfect match. You killed it."Knowledge is Good" - Emil Faber

@YukonRon - Looks great. I just did the same cooking technique with thick chops in the SV at 145 for about 2 hours tonight. I like your CI finish. Looking at this picture, what are those floating balls?YukonRon said:In the tub

Those help manage heat retention of the water. I bought those and made a top panel from a foil pan. There was zero deviation from 145F for the entire two hour cook. I recommend both.4Runner said:"Knowledge is Good" - Emil Faber

Great cook Ron. SV chops is one of my fav cooks right now.

I have only done three things thus far, infusing bourbon with vanilla (worth the purchase if I only did that), chicken breasts for Caeser Salad, (best I have ever tasted) and these pork chops (by far the best ever). I am thinking with the meals I have seen you post, you would flat smoke using this thing. You would probably change your handle to Sea2Ski&SousVide.Sea2Ski said:I might need to start cooking my food in water. Looks great!
