Braising is a cooking technique that involves searing the meat on high heat, then simmering it in a flavorful liquid over low heat.
Selecting the Perfect Pork Shoulder Steak
Choose a pork shoulder steak with marbling throughout the meat for optimal juiciness and tenderness.
Searing to Seal in Flavor
Sear the pork shoulder steak in a hot pan to create a flavorful crust and seal in the juices.
Adding Flavorful Ingredients
Add aromatic vegetables, herbs, and a savory liquid like broth, wine, or soy sauce to the pan for added flavor.
Simmering Slowly for Tenderness
Simmer the pork shoulder steak slowly over low heat to allow the meat to become tender and juicy.
Checking for Doneness
Check the internal temperature of the pork shoulder steak with a meat thermometer to ensure it is fully cooked.
Resting for Moisture Retention
Let the pork shoulder steak rest for a few minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
Enjoying the Savory and Juicy Results
Slice the braised pork shoulder steak and serve with the flavorful cooking liquid for a delicious and satisfying meal.
