pork chop - how'd this happen?
#1
decided to try the oven probe and reverse sear a pork chop.
set the probe for 110º in a 300º oven.
Took too long so I checked it with my Thermapen.
175º, should have been a dry awful piece of leather worthy of the trash and little else.
But it wasn't. It was tasty, moist and pretty tender.
The only prep I did was let it marinate in citrus, onion, garlic & ginger for about an hour.
I even seared for a minute more when I took it out of the oven (what the hell). Poured the marinade and some butter on and a little spice mixture.
What the f?
It ain't the thermapen, it was 175º.
Should I buy a lottery ticket?

300f is still a pretty low temp. The way to cook pork. Next time smash it and make schnitzel.
