Shipping
Our fully cooked smoked pork chops ship without the need for additional cooling or packaging. However, during hotter weather, we may use insulated bags, gel packs, or coolers to ensure they arrive in perfect condition. Smoked Pork Chops ship on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. Orders received after midnight on Tuesday will be shipped the following week.
Cooking Instructions
Grill over medium-high for 3-4 minutes per side until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F. Let them rest for 3-5 minutes before serving to retain juices.
Smoked pork chops are already pre-cooked, be careful not to overcook.
Storage
Promptly refrigerate or freeze upon receiving.
Refrigerate: Store unopened smoked pork chops in their original packaging in the refrigerator and use them within 3-5 days. Keep the pork chops tightly wrapped in plastic wrap or an airtight container.
Freeze: To freeze smoked pork chops leave them in their original packaging or wrap them tightly in plastic wrap, followed by aluminum foil, or place them in a heavy-duty freezer bag. Limit freezing to 2-3 months for the best flavor and texture.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What’s the best sauce or glaze to use for grilling?
(Shameless self-promotion alert) We suggest Amana Horseradish Jelly!
-
How do I keep from overcooking my smoked pork chops?
Keep grill time short since you're just reheating. Let the chops rest before cutting to allow juices to redistribute.
-
What pairs well with smoked pork chops?
We like adding applesauce or grilled pineapple to add some sweetness to the chops' rich, smoky flavor.
While the food is wonderful, I feel that the business itself and the website are lacking. My father-in-law was starting radiation on a cancerous tumor, and I ordered him a package of pork chops and bacon. I ordered the middle of one week and unfortunately, they did not have any deliveries until the following Monday. I went ahead and selected Monday and did not realize that it wasn’t an actual delivery date but a shipping date. The actual delivery date was two days later and now my father-in-law is on hospice and in a coma. The products were intercepted and refrigerated, so they will not go bad. But it was supposed to be a special gift for him at the end of his life since he’s the one that introduced me to this company and these pork chops. I have written to the company and haven’t gotten any satisfaction.
