    And we definitely need more "What is this Meat?" threads!
  • It is pork.

    There might be some sort of label on it that determines what grade it is. If it's 1, 2, 3, 4, or utility, then it's pork (which seems to be the popular answer).

    porkerhouse (the sirloin cut on pork). I work at a butcher, it looks pretty familiar to me.

    do a google image search on "pork sirloin steak", looks close to me. it'll be tougher than pork loin chops, and not as flavourful, so don't overcook it.

    It actually looks a bit to red for pork, and looks more like boneless bacon loin chops (same animal i know)
    Pork is paler in colour, and bacon darker due to curing

    Unfortunately Nana unwraps all of the meat from the store, then wraps individual patties/cuts in plastic wrap, and then puts the patties/cuts in a ziplock for us to take home.


    And I'm glad this has been entertaining for everyone!


    Also, I ended up putting this in a crock pot since it had been thawing in my fridge for a few days and there was four cuts of pork and not two, like I thought. I have no clue what's good with pork and my crock pot skills are limited, so I just threw in some stuff with it:

    Chicken Broth
    beef boullion cube
    corn
    green beans
    honey
    pepper
    sesame seed
    Worcestershire sauce

    All things I like (accept for honey, but I know it's good for me) and hopefully it'll be edible for tonight.
