Cooking Instructions
1) Place vacuum-sealed pork chops into a Suvie pan and cover with water.
2) Insert the pan into the bottom zone of your Suvie. Input the following settings, and cook now or schedule. If cooking from frozen, be sure to select “Yes” when asked if cooking from frozen.
Suvie Cook Settings
Bottom Zone: Sous Vide at 145°F for 1 hour (or up to 2 hours)
3) After the cook, remove the pork chops from their packaging and pat dry thoroughly. Set the top zone to Reheat Mode for 15 minutes. Pour sauce* into a Suvie pan and insert into the top zone of Suvie to heat while searing your pork chops.
4) Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large cast iron or heavy-bottom skillet over high heat until just smoking. Add the pork chops to the skillet in an even layer and sear for 1 minute on each side until browned. Transfer to a cutting board set aside.
5) Slice pork chops against the grain and serve with your selected sauce, or read on to learn how you can add your own vegetables and starches to build a complete meal.
*We recommend heating the Thai Coconut, Cilantro Lime, Lemon Herb, Marinara, Pesto, and Vodka Sauce in your Suvie. The Teriyaki, BBQ, Garlic Herb Butter, and Honey Mustard Glazes taste best at room temperature; drizzle these sauces directly onto the chops just before serving.
