Reverse sear question
Posted on 8/1/15 at 10:30 am

I have been reading the reverse sear threads but I have never tried it myself. I bought some 1.5" thick center cut pork chops today and I would like to try a reverse sear with them. Will this method work out well with pork?
About what temperature should I cook them in the oven and about how long will it take in there?

Put chops in the oven at 250 degrees until they reach somewhere in between 110 - 120 degrees.
A quick sear should bring the final temperature for the pork chops to 130 - 140 degrees for medium territory.

It should work great. Put them on a wire cookie rack over a sheet pan. In the oven at 275f for 35-40 minutes. Remember when you wear them to turn frequently so they don't over cook.

I've never worn pork chops before. I would imagine though, that it would really attract dogs and other wild animals?

JMO, but 250, 275 is too high.
200 degrees is the sweet spot. It'll take a little more time, but the trade off is actually cooking the outside vs. slowly bringing the whole piece of meat up to 130 degrees.
For pork, you want your final temp around 145-150, so I'd keep it in the oven till 130. Then 1-2 minutes per side should put you right where you want to be.

Make sure you use a digital meat thermomter, preferably the kind that sits outside the oven so you can monitor the progress. Don't go by time, that kinda defeats the purpose of reverse sear.
And I would go with no higher than 225 for the oven temp, that also somewhat defeats the purpose by going higher.
It should work well, but not as well as sous vide reverse sear for pork chops since you're using a dry heat which could dry out the chops. Don't over cook them or you'll be eating shoe leather.

I have never tried wearing a porkchop. Should I make a war medal out of it, or have it set in a manly ring.

2 inch chops always make me feel too tall. Perhaps you should sear them.

In the hope of keeping them moist I currently have the pork chops brining in an apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, salt and mustard solution.
Thanks for the tips. I will let you know how it goes.

I sure hope there was some water in there...
