Cooking Tips

🥩 Pork

  • Brine pork chops for 30 minutes in salt water to keep them juicy.
  • Cook pork to 145°F (63°C) and rest for 3 minutes — no longer needs to be 160°F.
  • Low-and-slow is the secret to tender pulled pork — 225°F for 8-10 hours.

Nutrition: Lean pork tenderloin has similar protein content to chicken breast with less fat.

Storage: Refrigerate up to 3-5 days for chops, 1-2 days for ground. Freeze for 4-6 months.

🫑 Bell Peppers

  • Red bell peppers are the sweetest — they're just fully ripened green peppers.
  • Roast peppers over an open flame or broiler for a smoky, silky texture.
  • Cut peppers from the outside in to avoid the bitter white pith.

Nutrition: Extremely high in vitamin C — one red pepper has 169% of your daily value.

Storage: Refrigerate whole peppers for up to 2 weeks. Cut peppers last 3-5 days.
