Air frying Frozen Chops?

Monketoes — Fri, 23 Aug 2019 21:12:47 GMT

Help, Y'all...the ones from the Q that's called the Ribeye of the Chops-?

My fryer is the Square one from Paula Deen.

How do you season when they are frozen? Cooking temp? Turning?

LOL! Can ya just come here and do it, and let me watch you? LOL

But really, Help

Don't have an air fryer but when I pan fry, I often wait until I turn the chop to season it. Meat takes the flavor better. JMO! Good luck with them!

You can stop the air fryer can't you? I've seen them take out fries to shake them up!

I have an idea.....thaw them first. Pork can be tricky; you want it well done. It's hard to judge cooking time if you start with frozen meat. Nuke it for 5 minutes, no big deal.

Thank you so much y'all. Believe I will wait now, and see if I get more answers. But, really, thanks y'all.

We will just get Chinese or some other take out now.

I just got a wild hair but waited sorta of late to get started of

trying to cook something.

I would never try to cook rock hard frozen meat in an air fryer, as it is sure to be an ultimate fail, and a total waste of a good piece of meat.

I think the days of well done pork are way over. That was many years ago. Now pork should have a bit of pinkish in the middle If you want pork that isn't like shoe leather.

Internal temp should be at 145* after sitting for a few minutes which is the equivalent of medium rare.

I use a meat thermometer for anything "iffy." Especially chicken, and that means with any form of cooking.

If I forget to thaw the pork chops out I place in the Air Fryer and use the 5 minute setting to thaw. Then I spritz with oil, S&P, Hot Paprika and cook 380 -15 minutes turning half way through. I season and spritz the second side after turning. They are fork tender and delicious. Good luck!

I thought that meat had to be thawed to put in the air fryer. Check your booklet but I wouls thaw it first especially since it's pork.

I haven't cooked totally frozen meat in my air fryer, but have cooked some meat that is slightly frozen. I just add a little time to the pre-set. I have never had a "failure" in cooking anything in my air fryer. I love it. For a big, thick chicken breast I check it with a thermometer.

I like my pork chops wellllll done and crispy and dried out like bacon. I cannot stand pork chops that are so chewy that the more you chew them, the bigger they get.

I bake boneless pork chops in a cast iron skillet with a lid in the oven at 350 for 45-60 minutes. I take the lid off and turn them the last 10 minutes are so. We love them like this and I rarely even try recipes that call for them to be cooked any other way.

I know. Madness. Right?
