So this was pretty tasty, to say the least. I cooked them first (pressure cooker), then hot-smoked for THAT flavor and then fried them up using a breading of flour, seasonings and panko. Oh, and used buttermilk first to dip them in before breading. My husband thought they were pretty much to die for. Edited to add, that I wasn't sure about smoking after pressure cooking, but they tasted just right for me. lol

Oh yeah! They were pretty good. We saw it on a YouTube video that did them Sous Vide, but I tossed them in the pressure cooker instead. Turned out fabulous! (I do love my Anova immersion circulator, too, though!)
 
Too Cool! I love the idea and can see the tough rib meat needing the Pressure Cooking to get them tender. I have got to give these a try. Thanks for posting.

This reminds me of CITY CHICKEN! For those that never had it...Thick 5" Wooden Skewers are threaded with 1" Chunks of Pork. Butt, Loin or even Tender Loin, gets seasoned or Brined, then skewered and molded to resemble Chicken Drums or Thighs (less fussing). The meat skewers get Breaded in your favorite Chicken Breading Recipe and Fried. Really good, Old School Food!...JJ

I’ll be sure to give that a try! Sounds good! I LOVE deep fried fooda.
 
Haha! I would understand that;however since I’m the one doing the clean-up, I’m good! Also, I cooked the ribs and smoked them one day and deep-fried them a couple days later.

Just wondering if smoking, then pressure cooking would be the way go for more smokiness?
Guest I'm going to have to do some experimentation.


I don’t know. I was afraid it’d lose the smoke the steam. At one point, I wouldn’t have put anything in the smoker AFTER cooking, but I started noticing people doing it on sous vide forums and tried it. Worked for me. A person could smoke till cooked and then deep fry, too. This is just the way I did it.
 
Thinking about it a bit more, you're most likely correct.
Smoking first, then sous vide would be preferred over pressure cooking since there'd be no direct water/steam applied.
So I'm thinking to simply smoke and deep fry.

One of these days I'll buy a Sous Vide machine.

Very unique! Points for something different. Not to mention they look dangerously delicious!

I have done the breaded kettle fried pork steaks with the vortex many times. (Its chopsaw chopsaw 's fault!) Those are mind blowing! This reminds me much of that without all the steps.

I like to make things complicated as possible, though. I’m sure they don’t have to be. One could smoke and deep fry or just pressure or oven cook and deep fry. I also had a rub on them. Forgot to mention that. They were different tasting after the deep frying. I’m not sure, if you didn’t know, that you’d think the meat was rib.

Those pork steaks sound delicious! I’ll have to give that a whirl. I’ll fry anything! Practically. It’s my favorite food group.
