Thick-cut center-loin chops with the bone in. Hand-cut to about 1.25 inches so you get a real sear and a juicy interior. From heritage hogs raised on pasture — the kind of marbling you cannot get from supermarket pork.

About this cut

The center-cut loin is the leanest, most tender section of the pork loin. The bone protects the meat during cooking, keeps it juicy, and adds flavor. Each package contains two chops cut about 1.25 inches thick — substantial enough to handle a hard sear without overcooking the interior.

Pork from pasture-raised heritage hogs cooks differently than supermarket pork. The chop is done when it feels firm at the edges and gives a little spring in the middle — pull it off the heat, let it rest, and slice across the grain. Do not overcook it.

COOKING

Pat dry. Salt 40 minutes ahead. Sear in cast iron over high heat, 3-4 minutes per side. Rest 5 minutes before serving.

STORAGE

Freezer up to 6 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge. Refrigerate up to 4 days after thawing.
