From Sanbanto – minced pork, Korean style BBQ pork belly and pork burgers (not in the photo). The regular pork belly was from a previous order.
I can get bacon from Hank’s which is part of Jaya Grocer and located in its own shoplot next to Jaya Grocer at The Starling.
I looked at the label just to check if the bacon contains sugar (some do as part of the seasonings). It turned out pretty good and although it is unsmoked, it tastes just like the usual bacon that I usually eat.
As I was enjoying my lunch, the power supply in my house was cut off. Bah! So I texted my road rep to check if she had power and apparently she had but a few of our neighbors were also without power.
As for dinner, it was pork chops. I love the pork chops from Sanbanto and I always put in a request for meat with more fat.
I had another 3 pieces of bacon left and I fried them up. Then I pan fried the pork chops (using residual bacon fat) and sliced onions.
At the last moment I added a cube of butter and some soy sauce. I removed the pork chops from the pan and continued to saute the onions until caramelized.
What can I say? The pork chops were phenomenal! So so good! But I was not able to finish all of it due to my very substantial lunch. So there are leftovers for tomorrow!
