It's best to plan ahead for slow, safe thawing in the refrigerator. After thawing raw pork by this method, it will remain safe in the refrigerator 3 to 5 days before cooking. During this time, if you decide not to use the pork, you can safely refreeze it without cooking it first.
Pork chops are just plain juicier and more tender at the new safe temp of 145Â°F (they will probably rise to about 150Â°F during the 3 minute rest). At that temp pork will be very pale pink. You can make chops even better with about 30 to 60 minutes in a 5% brine. That's 1 cup of table salt to 1 gallon of water.ork chops are just plain juicier and more tender at the new safe temp of 145Â°F (they will probably rise to about 150Â°F during the 3 minute rest).
