These lamp chops were made in a cooler! Seriously. You know the fancy sous-vide machines they are always using on Iron Chef to make things cook faster? Well the cooler is the poor man's sous-vide, and let me tell you, it rocks. The chops rested in a large freezer bag with fresh herbs and soaked in a warm water bath for about an hour and a half. Then they were seared on both sides for a few minutes. Pioneer Woman's hearty and delicious lasagna took longer to make than the chops!
Thanks, Ed for the tips on the sous-vide and searing the meat!
oooh, i need to look up this cooler method. i was salivating over all the food bloggers talking about the sous-vide home machines and food they were making (though the food safety thing scares me a little), but not ready to buy a crazy machine yet :D
