Pork Loin Pork Chops with a Surprise

[Bill Schultz]

So went to Shop Rite today to pick up something for dinner. saw they had these Pork Loin Chops on sale and they had beautiful fine marbling all through them, and then I saw they had the nice hand picked crab meat also on sale.
Mmmm, never seen that before so I did a little experiment

Sauteed a yellow onion in butter and EVOO, S&P, and added the Crabmeat and some Four Seasons Bread Crumbs.

For my Buddy Rolf the answer is yes

Pork Chops opened up like a book, the stuffing added

Buttoned up with toothpicks, dressed with a little EVOO, and Penzey's Spanish Style Smoked Paprika

Custom cooler

Indirect on the OTG until 130 and then direct to finish

Done and heading in

On the table with some of the mushroom risotto from the other night and the CEO's Broccoli Rabi Bread

Your plate

Looks amazing, Bill. I'd call that one successful "experiment". It's photos like these which make me really hate my shellfish allergy.

 

[Pat Romero]

Bill - another excellent meal!

Two Questions: 1) how did the seafood flavor marry up with the pork flavor ... Good balance or did one overtake the other?
2) I live in South Louisiana, so can you ship me one of your Custom Beer Cooler's?

 

[Tony R]

I like this experiment. Nicely done Bill.

 

[Paul Kastner]

Great combo. Bill you really nailed that cook.

 

[John Solak]

What a fantastic looking meal, everything looks sensational. well done Bill and Mrs. Schultz!!!

 

[Bob Mann]

That is a great looking cook and pics Bill!

 

[Mike May]

Nice improvisation - maybe the Jazz of BBQ? Looks Great!

Nice choice of knife and beer as well. I don't have that particular Shun knife, but I do have some of that locally brewed (for me) Summit IPA.

 

[Brian Dahl]

Bill, no surprise here: This all looks great! Delicious! Experiment succeeded! But I REALLY would like a slice of your wife's bread (or at least a few tips on how it's made)

 

[Bill Schultz]

Pat the combo was very nice together, you really tasted the crab in the middle and kind of added a nice moisture to the center. Never saw this combo before but the pork loin melds well with it. Would do this one again for sure. The Penzey smoked paprika does a lot for the pork also.
Brian I have no idea how the CEO made it but will ask her. She was working from home today and said she over cooked it a bit as she got stuck on a conference call. Couldn't tell by me as it was delicious.

 

[James N]

That sure is different Bill & i like the idea of the broc-rabi bread.... good work.

 

[Mike Coffman]

Picture perfect plate of food Bill!

 

[Jak Stepan]

dang. I mean DANG. very very cool, esp the stuffing idea and chops were perfectly done.

don't lift the lid...

 

[Bill Schultz]

Thanks Guy's

 

[Nick_U]

That looks fantastic Bill!

 

[Dave Braxmaier]

I like it .............. looks pretty good ......

 

[Robert T]

As usual your food looks gorgeous and delicious.

 

[Bob H.]

They look delicious. Wonder if it would work with shrimp?

 

[Clint]

I wouldn't turn a plate of that down ----- go ahead and try me.

 

[Bob Correll]

Tasty looking cook Bill, and the bread looks killer!
Hats off to you and the CEO!
