Grilled Heritage Pork Chops
Heritage breeds stand out from other commodity pork due to their high fat content. As opposed to low-fat commodity pork, when heritage breed pork is cooked, that fat melts away and creates a decadent and juicy piece of pork that is packed with flavor. When you serve your family heritage breed pork from Tony's, you can skip on the applesauce and dry chops. Much like a fine steak, we recommend cooking your heritage breed longbone pork chops using the "reverse sear" method.
Fun Fact: The USDA recommends cooking pork to just 145° internal which will leave your pork moist and flavorful, not dry. Embrace the pink! Be sure to invest in a good meat thermometer and rest your pork for 5 minutes after cooking.
