I logged on to your blog and searched "pork chops". I watched your video and prepared Mustards (been there) Mongolian Pork Chops with minor substitutions (ground ginger instead of fresh, apple cider vinegar in place of sherry vinegar and a couple frozen cubes of cilantro in place of green onion and fresh cilantro). Because I don't have a charcoal grill l prepared a foil smoke pack using some apple wood chips and placed a Pyrex dish of water on the grill to keep things moist.<br /><br />My food wish is that I could send pictures of before and after. Before was almost as perfect as yours. After was nothing but bone. My three daughters devoured theirs and it was all I could do to save the sixth and final chop to take to my mom tomorrow. Thank you for this. I'll definitely be making again in the future to impress dinner guests!<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07625783802105032947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-38302710630335231272015-03-16T21:17:11.434-04:002015-03-16T21:17:11.434-04:00Would you suggest brining the chops first or are t...Would you suggest brining the chops first or are they already gonna be tender and moist enough??Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12008348706947594569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-85868170110751111552015-02-11T17:48:25.910-05:002015-02-11T17:48:25.910-05:00Yes the liquid smoke could work, but I would be su...Yes the liquid smoke could work, but I would be super careful since that stuff can be so overpowering!Chef Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15030125427840815038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-85988505656535517322015-02-11T14:10:33.957-05:002015-02-11T14:10:33.957-05:00Chef John,

My personal plan of attack is to marinate the chops in vacuum seal bags, cook them in my Sous Vide Supreme water oven to 145 degrees, and finish them in my cast iron grill pan on the stovetop to add the grill marks.(my gas grill is down for repair). Could I add a drop or two of liquid smoke to the reserved marinade to add a little smoke flavor to the chops? Your thoughts about this approach would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

This was truly delicious- even though I only used one kind of vinegar in the marinade and skipped the mustard sauce and cooked it on a cast iron griddle pan- it was still one of the best dinners ever!! So much so that I was thinking of ways to get the same flavours with a different preparation. So I made pork meatballs ( put some of the minced ginger and garlic in the meatballs with salt and the two peppers) , made a cooked sauce out of the rest of the marinade and cooked the meatballs in the sauce with some carrots. I served it over the bok choy rice ( yes thanks again :-) ) . It was a really nice meal but I did think it suffered from a lack of imagination on my part. It just wasn't as stunning as the whole juicy chop with the sticky marinade thing. Would love your feedback on how to tweak this if I repeat it. Oh , and I know this has been said over and over again but thank you for this blog! It is now a daily staple for my husband and I .... We have to watch a few videos or our day isn't complete!Lovetocookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11037541231777544256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-77204461657977845302014-06-07T23:13:25.940-04:002014-06-07T23:13:25.940-04:00Good Lord!

The mustard sauce really does compliment the pork so well. This is definitely a keeper. We marinated the chops over night. We cooked them on our cast iron grill to get the grill marks and then put them in the oven on 300 degrees F until it read 140 degrees basting every few minutes. We also made the braised cabbage from this site. It took about 50 minutes to cook it. I don't know how it could be tender after 5 minutes as stated on the recipe. I chopped it just a hair wider than what Chef John showed on the video. I think my cabbage had too many thick leaves. Next time I'll just remove all the really thick pieces. Made loaded mashed potatoes and served it with Weyerbacher's Merry Monks ale, a great ale for this meal. Thank you for another fabulous recipe Chef John you ROCK!Kilyenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03674173623395584145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-91683433446341447162013-09-13T08:41:22.989-04:002013-09-13T08:41:22.989-04:00Hi Chef John

I just made this tonight and I wanted to let you know that replacing the creme fraiche with a good dollop of cream cheese and a splash of milk made for a very tasty sauce with an excellent consistency using my immersion blender.<br /><br />I also, unfortunately, had to exchange the pork chops for tenderloin - and although it *worked,* technically, - the reality is that the meat flavor wasn't strong enough for the marinade and it ended up falling a little flat. A flavorful cut like chop would be PERFECT! <br /><br />Another fantastic recipe video, Chef John!EasilyEnthusedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13216075229668897523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-87088529775799789972012-04-13T17:27:06.456-04:002012-04-13T17:27:06.456-04:00Hi Chef John.

It’s sort of like a stuffed pizza, which uses a very basic, unleavened bread dough that’s rolled, spun, and stretched very thin, before being stuffed with the creamy cheese. It’s baked in a very hot oven, where it puffs up, and gets crispy on the outside, while the inside stays soft and cheesy. It was awesome, and something I must figure out how to make!<br />Yikes, that would be excellent with the Mongolian chops.Juliananoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-44499889039318785232012-04-11T21:15:15.171-04:002012-04-11T21:15:15.171-04:00An, thanks!!
