Fresh Pork Chops

So we got a half of a pig from New Roots Farm in Newmarket, NH. Here is the freezer WITHOUT the ham and bacon (which we are picking up soon now that it is done smoking):



Last night for my birthday we decided to start in on our super local and hopefully super delicious meat. Two pork chops, coming right up!





The darker meat was excellent, as was any meat around the bones. I think I may have overcooked the chops as a whole, though.

I am going to start planning out meals for all of the other cuts we have, including the trotters (that's right, the feet). Keep an eye out in this album for updates on the wonderful things we cook up. I'll probably also post them all here tagged under local pork.

BRIAN OUT.
