How To Sous Vide Pork Butterfly Chop
Butterfly Chop is a lean cut of pork. Because of this, butterfly chop is best cooked by bringing it up to your desired temperature, but not letting it cook for an extended period of time.
One of the awesome things about cooking butterfly chop sous vide is that you can cook as low as 134ºF and still serve it safely (of course, this may take a longer time to cook). Even at higher temperatures, you can still make a butterfly chop that will be moist and not dry.
Our advice with Butterfly Chop is to cook it at a temperature no more than medium.
