LC was playing butcher and made these. They are like a beef rib eye, but with pork, complete with dark meat deckle (the equivlent of the outer edge of the rib eye or prime rib). She marinated them in a blend of soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, chiles, garlic, and ginger.

  • That is a good cut of pork. In my area generally overlooked and a good value compared to loin chops. I like to cook hot and fast with Gates for a sauce.

    They look a heck of a lot better than you described on the phone. Glad you didn't try to take credit for LC's cook or I would have thrown the man book out and tossed you under the bus :evil: :laugh: :laugh: :woohoo: Great looking cook Michelle ;)
  • bubba tim,

    If you get a chance to try this, it has just a little more kick than the Chinese ketchup

    Thanks, and I agree. I buy the whole loin, then cut them into chops myself, saving the sirloin end for roasts and roulades, and the rib end, with that wonderful dark meat, for chops. I always cut the chops myself (it certainly doesn't take a brain surgeon!) I like my chops 1-1 1/2 inch thick, and can't find them like that at the market. :) These were pretty good, and a new marinade that should work on beef as well. I will post the marinade recipe. (definately could have let them marinate longer is my main complaint). Tasty, but under marinated. Totally my fault. :angry:

    Always looking for new ingredients! This is a new one on me, and especially with Asian flavors, that is rare! :ohmy: I will look for that brand! Thanks for the input!

  • Your right, so easy. So many possiblities. Some of the other things I cut my whole loin. Breakfast chops, the middle of the loin for Canadian Bacon, the sirloin end for boneless country style ribs, I have even made my own pork cutlets. I like my chops that thick as well. Hard to dry out.

    Try This

    It's carrot based and actually enhances the flavor of the food you add it too.
  • Little Chef,

    We seem to get a lot of ingredients in Canada that aren't readily available in the States. Let me know if there is anything you are loking for and I'll try and help.

    That sounds great especially with the fresh ginger. Started to pick up some fresh squash myself today but didn't look real good so grabed a lb bunch of asparagrass. Got it home and wife said it didn't smell real good. The tops had a dark purple rust on them. 4 bucks!! Going back tomorrow!

    Thanks again.

  • Little Chef,

    I meant to say ethnic ingredients. With respect to La Bomba...yes.
