 Posted: Jul 14 2010 Post subject: cooking today for Saturday |
 |
|
| I am cooking pulled pork today for lady at my church. She is taking it out of town tomorrow and reheating on Saturday. Obviously not ideal. Any advice on what to do in terms of storing between now and Saturday? Also, any advice on how she should reheat? |

Can you vacuum seal it for her? That should stay just fine until Saturday.

Option 1
Pull the pork and Ice bath..
Vac. Bag and reheat in boiling water.(In the sealed bag)
Yummy..
Option 2
It will be fine even if You just used freezer Zip locks,Ice bath and freeze..Reheat in a hotel pan covered with foil in the oven.(Add a little Apple juice for some moisture in the pan..Foil tight)

Option 2 is definitely, well................... an option.  I didn't mention it because I did not know how long the food would be away from a refrigerator since she will be traveling.............

I just did a butt on Sat for dinner on Sunday. After the cook Sat, I let it rest, pulled it and put it in a glass container in the fridge over night. Sun afternoon, I popped it in a tin pan, spritzed a few times (apple juice,JB and maple syrup). Foil over top and into a 300° oven fer 1/2 hr or what ever. Your going to drizzle butt juice over it any way, right ?

Freeze and thaw in boiling water for 15 to 20 mins (in food saver bag), it will be just lilke the day you cooked it (almost  ). And now the food saver police will chime in on how the bag will rupture and/or release all the bad chemicals to the food........  No worries here as I do it all the time and last weekend added white cooking wine for a little moisture as needed to a bag that was 18 months old and still ....Good eats IMO.
YMMV
