What to do w/veal shoulder blade chops? - pjcooks - 03-25-2007
Picked up a couple of these today, each weighs about 1.75 #, for less than a buck a pound. For that money, I'll give it a go. I know I should probably braise, I'd rather marinate & panfry. I intend serving this to the Picky One for supper some evening, so I need to stay away from tomatoes and anything too spicy or "wierd" (his word, none of that SW or Med stuff, no stews or casseroles or pasta)
Come to think of it, it might be easier finding someone else to cook for
If any of you have an idea for me, I'd appreciate it!

LOL, I'd probably braise them too! I love braised meat and since each of them are about 1.75#, I believe I would stick with that....mmmmm, mashed potatos and gravy.
... a roasted green veggie!

You could pretend and make osso bucco with them. You could crumb them in fresh bread crumbs and herbs, and pan fry slowly in butter and oil until browned.

Brown some onions and mushrooms, then brown the chops (floured); add the onions/shrooms (and garlic, rosemary) back on top and add some beef broth/wine and braise? simple flavors, but...good flavors.
Cut off bone and pound thin and do a breaded veal?
Would he (and you!)like a mornay sauce (and call it gravy
) over pan seared and roasted chops?have fun, you'll come up with something!

Jan, Dale and Jean, thanks for the good ideas. I'll toss them around a bit to make it all work. I better hide these in the fridge before he sees them and decides he won't like them
.You're all lucky you have a captive audience to cook for. Even changing ketchup brands around here is a big deal
