Cured Chops with Jalapeno-Cornbread Stuffing

[Rookie'48]

Good lookin' eats right there, Cowgirl! I have finally figured out how to NOT drool all over my keyboard - before opening any posts by you, I tie a big ol' bib around my neck :biggrin:. Those keyboards were getting kinda pricey if ya know what I mean .

Great looking Chops and fried green maters, Cowgirl! Quick question...how long do you rinse the chops, after the brine?

Max, I just held these under the faucet and rinsed the grainy cure off. It took just a few minutes.

Thanks for the kind words folks and thanks for checking out my chops. :wink:

lol Dave, I like the bib idea....should be required before reading this whole fourm! :biggrin:

Wow! Nice job Patty! Where did you find green tomatoes in February? :lol::lol::lol: That's the perfect Southern dish...IMHO! :biggrin:

 

[cowgirl]

Thanks folks!! You're definately too kind!


JD, I slice and can green tomatoes at the end of the growing season... then just drain, roll in seasoned flour and panko and fry til crispy.

3 Hour Cure?

Great looking stuff Cowgirl!

I'm curious about the cure. I assume it was dry? What was the goal? Why dry as opposed to a brine, and why tenderquick instead of regular salt?

Thanks,

JimT

Thank you Jim and Ashmont!

Jim, the tenderquick method is just one of their recipes for chops...

It works good on chicken pieces too.

Ashmont, I've got the papers ready and your room straightened up. lol
