Review: Mountain House Pork Chop Pieces - Limited 2018 production.

Freeze Dried Pork Chop Pieces in a #10 can!
Limited 2018 contract production overrun from Mountain House (Best by 2048).
We were pleasantly surprised at the size of these pork loin pieces. They rehydrated very well but we may have overcooked them in the pressure cooker. ;)
These are available while stock lasts here:

Oh man, looks good and then you brought out the Vindaloo sauce. LOVE Indian food :) Looks amazing

[@EpicenterBryan]

Oh man - You are going to love a big series of Indian food videos coming soon. Stay tuned!

[@Iridium242]

Break out those Chicken Tikka Masala MRES and Sides of Naan :) I know you guys are hiding them somewhere heheh

[@EpicenterBryan]

Years ago, we purchased all the Indian food over-runs that were made for prisoners at Guantanamo bay. There were some stellar ones in that batch that I wish I saved for myself. They sold so fast. Oh that Sagg ....

[@Iridium242]

Cool, Well if you manage to get any other Indian stuff in let me know, I want to pick up a few for review on my KZbin channel.

Where was I?

[@FernbarkFrist]

Those chops are so cool.

[@hennnseyxo1813]

Wow this amazing

[@TheOriginalMaxGForce]

You right!

[@bakaboy2000]

Have you tried to freeze dry the Costco sauce? If that worked, it would be great to have a variety of sauces available all freeze dried.

[@InFltSvc]

Over run = not sold

[@jensgoerke3819]

Have you ever tried rehydrating meat in marinade? A friend once tried a marinade of orange juice, sesame oil, soy sauce, honey, and sambal olek, which resulted in his pork becoming as tender as salmon after cooking.

[@EpicenterBryan]

Will need to give that a try. We did use beer one time for the chicken fried steak and it was great!

[@ultramagapatriot5874]

So the freeze dried pork chops are no longer available?

[@EpicenterBryan]

Not that I know of. They normally contact us when they have excess contract items like this.

[@jerryfarr3175]

Do you have free shipping at a certain amount?

[@miar.1570]

Random question-- could you guys try to freeze dry Japanese food? Like tonkotsu ramen or udon?

[@JustAWitch]

Yes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4LSg32nq9uFaqc

[@miar.1570]

Reality Bites Thank you!! 💜

[@EpicenterBryan]

Plan to do some more in the future...

[@miar.1570]

EpicenterBryan Awesome, looking forward to it!

[@jacobreveles7222]

oh no, I'm two years too late. oh well

[@nancydb1390]

Wonder if you had soaked them longer if the meat would have been more tender...

[@jburr36]

meat is best done seared to caramelize the exterior for flavor then slow cooked between 165 -200 F to retain the moisture. Cooking meat above boiling point of water drives out moisture and dries the meat. Pressure cookers raise the boiling temp of water in the meat so it helps but once the pressure is released it evaporates quickly

[@TheSigp6]

How many pices are in a can I can’t find that info it just says 9 servings of 1.5oces dried

[@EpicenterBryan]

The best thing to do is watch the video and see if you can count yourself. We re-hydrated everything in the can, so you should be able to get a count. The can doesn't say anything specific about number of pieces.

[@tomriddlez]

can you eat them as is? like beast mode eat them dry?

[@jensgoerke3819]

Unless it's been tested and really fresh - available minced in Germany as Mett to be eaten raw (topped with chopped onions to taste) within a few hours. It doesn't keep; leftovers from such a breakfast usually get thoroughly fried the same evening or thrown out the next day.

[@joshualehman685]

You could eat freeze dried pork dry. The process kills the bacteria

[@JS-wp4gs]

@@joshualehman685 No it doesn't. Freeze drying does not kill bacteria

[@joshualehman685]

@@JS-wp4gs check bacterial growth and temperature. Freeze dried meat raw or cooked doesn't have the moisture to sustain bacteria. Viruses are a different story.

Would you guys consider sending some of this to Boy Scouts we would love to have this my favorite have to be chicken fried rice
