Apples were perfect. Pork chops lacked grill marks. Need to figure out how to get grill marks without drying out the meat.

The packet of sesame/pumpkin seeds and craisins was free. Local food bank has a grab what you can kale salad mix and this packet was in each one. We wanted a day to see what wasn't taken and then distributed them to local animal people.

Pork chops were marinated in a mix of homemade Emeril BAM, olive oil, cider vinegar and salt.

Was it tasty? Definitely. Cost per person: $4.25

But thicker pork chops, dry them and salt them on an uncovered plate in the fridge over night.

Good tip on thicker chops, and for those grill marks without drying - super hot grill for just 1-2 mins per side then finish on lower heat or in oven til internal temp hits 140F (it'll rise to 145 while resting).

To get a crust on any meat, simply dry the surface of the meat as much as you can. Also with a cut like pork chop, pull the chop at like 145 or so. I’m sleepy but you can look up a temperature over time bacterial chart for answers, then target doneness based on what works best for that type of meat. You pull early because residual heat will keep cooking the meat as it rests (unless you slice it right then). If you’re ever in danger of it overcooking just pull and slice immediately to stop any carryover cooking.

How did you cook the apples?

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Peeled and cored, tossed in melted butter, grilled on a grill screen, tossed in a foil pouch with the seeds and berries, more butter and rosemary. Then baked in the pouch while grilling the pork.
