Liralen Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Yesterday took some thick cut pork chops and cut a slice in the side down to the bone & then seasoned the pork chops outside with am applewood rub. Then took the pork chops and browned them in a frying pan that had seasoned with olive oil. Set the pork chops aside while making the stuffing (this allows them to cool a little for ease of stuffing). Next, sliced up some applewood smoked bacon into small pieces & put them in the frying pan to cook until almost done. While that was cooking, diced/chopped up white onion, mushrooms, and granny smith apples which I minced. Sauteed the onion & apples in the grease from the bacon, then added in the mushrooms once the onions were starting to become transluscent added in a sweet pork seasoning. When done, deglazed the pan with apple juice. Took the bacon, along with the onion/shroom/apple mixture and put in with the bread crumbs, including the apple juice used to deglaze the pan (helped give the bread crumbs some additional moisture)...which then mixed up. Spooned the stuffing mixturee into the Pork chops. Placed the pork chops in a casserole dish that had coated with olive oil & added a little apple juice to the bottom, covered with foil. Cooked at 400 degrees farenheit for 45 minutes (or longer depending on your oven). Took the pork chops out of the pan. I then made a cream gravy with the drippings/juice that was left in the pan (good 3-4 cups). If there is not enough juice in your pan, you can deglaze it with some additional apple juice/water. If you have extra stuffing put it in a bread pan and cook in the oven for 15-30 minutes. Asparagus with cheese was the side vegetable. It was served with a dry Riesling wine. Overall was a big hit and the stuffing was delicious! I meant to take a picture...but forgot...sorry! ocdrifter and mc2hill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suppose could send without the frosting on or filled ...then the recipient would just need to put together...lol ZMAN024 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dabirdzR/T Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Thinking about making Prime Rib for Christmas dinner, saw something on the food network about one being coated in a compound butter with some garlic, and thyme... twice baked taters, green bean casserole and cheesecake for dinner..

shane@detailedreflections Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 This is a great thread. Made a Beef Wellington a couple of weeks ago for the guys at work for our Thanksgiving. A little time consuming, but so tasty. ocdrifter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I make mine with a blend of recipes that are out there. Usually top it with a mederia wine sauce. Just plan some time to go through each step and refrigerate it.

Picked up my 19 lb bone in rib roast for Christmas dinner tonight. Cash & Carry had them for $6.40 a lb. They were $9.99 a pound if I wanted to go for the prime cut. Have purchase both brands before and found either to be good, but getting the regular vs prime saves quite a bit. Will rub it down with a horseradish ground Dijon mustard & cowboy rub, probably throw it on the Traeger smoker on smoke for an hour, then turn it up a bit and smoke it a little longer until a rare in the middle and med rare on the outside ends. Twice baked taters is a great idea, and what would be a holiday meal without green bean casserole! mc2hill and dabirdzR/T 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
