The best way I’ve found to cook pork chops is sous vide, finishing them on a very hot grill with salt and pepper, Maillard reaction.

Obviously, select a good cut of meat.

This retains the moisture better than any other technique.

“The best way I’ve found to cook pork chops.” Here is the best way: substitute lamb or beef for your recipes. I had a friend that recently passed. Her advice was stay away from pork. She was raised on an Iowa farm that sold beef and pork. Her family sold the good meat—beef—and kept the other meat for themselves, which was pork. She eventually had open heart heart surgery for her clogged veins, taking a few veins from her leg for the surgery. Hey, eat what you want, but I never touch pork. Send it to the Palestinians.

Agreed- and it’s safer than traditional cooking as the whole chop or loin or whatever gets up to a precise temp- traditional cooking one part can be say 120 while another thinner spot is 160 or more- Souse Vide is a very precise and even cooking method- and you can keep it at whatever temp for long periods (15 minutes or more) to ensure safety (as food safety is a combo of both time and temp-

sous vide is great for cooking a steak. Set tjhe water to about 125-130 degrees. When is is done, put it in a hot cast iron skillet for 1-2 minutes per side. Best steak I’ve ever had.

I was about to post close to your exact words. All I will add is if it is really cold outside, finish in smoking hot cast iron.
