  • Pork-Cut-Sheet-Kitchen-Wizard.Pdf
    www.anchorranchfarm.com [email protected] 503-394-2347 @anchorranchfarm on Facebook Pastured pork cut Sheet: “KITCHEN WIZARD”. For those wanting a lot of roasts and stews. First, some general suggestions when choosing cuts and when cooking your pork: Tell the butcher you want more fat left on your cuts. The fat from pasture-raised pigs is where the flavor is. Cooking with some fat on will make the meat more flavorful and juicy. Bone-in cuts will be juicier and have better flavor. You will always get some stew meat and some sausage as a result of the butchering process. You can ask for more of either or both, if you want. Sausage can be loose-ground, or linked in casings for an extra cost. Ask about sausage seasonings. Tough cuts have more innate flavor but need to be cooked on low heat for a long time (low and slow) to reach “falling off the bone” stage. Tender cuts need quick cooking on high heat to preserve flavor and tenderness so the outside is seared and the inside is cooked to temperature. Do not overcook! But you can almost always braise tender cuts and not have to worry as much about overcooking. What follows are some suggestions for what cuts to ask for from each part of the pig if your goal is to do a lot of roasts and stews. CUT OPTIONS COOKING SUGGESTIONS Shoulder (the front of the pig from behind the head down to the top of the front leg) “Boston Butt” roast Bone-in or boneless.

  • CARCASE Hanging
    Sbk2_006 Stránka č. 1 z 4 CARCASE Hanging When pre-rigor muscle is placed under sufficient tension to prevent shortening of the muscle fibers during rigor there is a large improvement in tenderness. As a result a number of techniques have been developed which place pre-rigor muscle under tension. These early attempts often comprised 'racks' of stretching devices which were applied to the hot carcass. These devices proved not to be commercial and it was not until the early 70's that workers from the US and Australia experimented with pelvic hanging that the concept of stretching muscles as a technique to improve tenderness had a resurgence. It is interesting that although the results of stretching pre-rigor muscle are clear cut, the mechanisms by which the increased tension causes an increase in tenderness are not clear. Stretching or restraining pre-rigor muscle results in an increased sarcomere length, relative to unrestrained muscle. As sacromere length increases there is a resultant increase in tenderness up until a sarcomere length of about 2.0 microns. If greater tension is applied the sarcomere length can further increase up to about 3.2 microns, although there is little further improvement in tenderness. A number of theories have been put forward to explain this increase in tenderness. One of the most commonly quoted is that stretching results in a decrease in the overlap between the actin and myosin filaments in the myofibres of the muscle bundles and that this contributes to increased tenderness. Another hypothesis is that the stretched muscle has a decreased fiber diameter and in cooked meat this results in decreased toughness.

  • Filet Mignon Steak
    Filet Mignon Steak What is it? This is the tenderest steak cut from the larger Tenderloin roast. Known for its tender texture, smooth bite and is nicely marbled. We cut ours at 1.5+ inch thick best for grilling but you can also purchase our Petite Tenderloin which is the flat end of the Tenderloin cut and very thin for easy pan frying. How to cook! For best results season with a pinch of coarse salt and pepper, allowing steaks to come to room temperature before cooking. The tenderer the steak the quicker they cook so watch the Filet as it will overcook quickly. See below for a great Lemon and Parsley Butter addition! . Grill: Cook over medium heat app 5-6 minutes per side. Note: each grill is different! A new “Viking” stainless steel gas grill will cook different than the faithful charcoal but this is a guide. See the next section for what really matters when cooking a great steak like this. Pan Fry: you can also pan fry the Filet using a lower to medium heat. Sprinkle the pan with oil, season the steak with salt and pepper and cook for app 6-8 minutes per side. What to remember! Grassfed steaks cook faster and are better enjoyed rare to medium rare! The worst thing you can do is over cook a great steak like this which can make it dry and chewy. The variable that has changed my grilling from bad to decent is knowing steak continues to cook after you pull it off the heat.
