Done plenty of steak in the sous vide, but did some chops for the first time this week. I am a convert; may never cook them another way.

  2. 137 for 2 hours hot sear. My favorite sous vide meal so far.

    Pork is the single best thing to do sous vide with, in my experience. Tenderloins are absurdly good

  4. I batch cook large quantities of these for meal prep. Season them up and throw em in a bath at 130° for two hours, then I just throw them in the fridge/freezer. Throw them in the air fryer straight out of the fridge for five minutes a side at 400° and they come up to the exact doneness I like.

    I guess we’ll all just stare at your photos and guess how you seasoned them, sous vide time and temperature, and how you seared them.

    Nothing to discuss.

    Try a really thick one, ideally a fatty heirloom variety. Pork chops (and tenderloin) shine in sous vide. 135 to 137 is my sweet spot. Warmer if dinner guests are squeamish.

    140 is fine, just start dropping a degree at a time. At some point it gets a bit weird texturally but is safe. It should be pleasant though. Same reason I wouldn’t sous vide chicken low. It needs some bite to it.
