Sous vide pork chops for juicy tenderness, then grill for charred flavor.
Ingredients:
  • 4 bone-in pork chops (about 1 1/2 pounds)
  • 1 teaspoon Morton Kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons freshly chopped sage, thyme, or rosemary, or combination of all three
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions:
  • Prepare the water bath: Fill a pot with water and immerse the circulator. Set it to 140°F and allow the water to reach the desired temperature.
  • For the pork chops: Place the pork chops in a large resealable bag and add salt, pepper, herbs, and olive oil. Seal the bag and massage the ingredients to coat the chops evenly. Arrange the chops in the bag in a single layer or overlapping, as they will cook evenly either way.
  • Efficiently seal the bag: Submerge the bag containing the pork chops in water, allowing the pressure to push out excess air. Once the air is removed and the bag's top reaches the water line, seal it shut. You can do this while the water is heating up in the pot (use caution if the water is steaming).
  • Sous vide the pork: Once the water reaches the desired temperature, immerse the vacuum-sealed bag of pork chops, ensuring they are fully submerged for even cooking. Cook bone-in chops less than an inch thick or boneless chops for 1 hour. For bone-in chops over an inch thick, cook for approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes. Once done, remove the bag from the water and switch off the circulator.
  • For grilling: Preheat the grill to medium heat. Grill the pork chops directly on the grates, flipping occasionally, until they develop a golden crust, usually just a few minutes per side depending on thickness.
  • To finish on the stovetop, heat a sauté pan or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat with a touch of olive oil or butter. Sear the chops until a golden crust forms, about 1-2 minutes per side. Rest the chops for 5 minutes before serving, sprinkled with sea salt and fresh herbs. Optionally, drizzle with pan juices, more olive oil, or your favorite sauce like gremolata or pesto.
