New to sous vide? I explain in simple terms everything I know about sous vide cooking.
Why should you sous vide pork chops?
Fat means flavor and pork chops, especially boneless pork chops, are super lean. Pork chops can be more difficult to cook perfectly because they are lean. But with the sous vide cooking method, it takes all the guess work out of cooking your favorite pork protein. Here’s why I feel the sous vide technique is so great for cooking pork chops:
- Perfect texture.
- Healthy cooking technique
- Set the sous vide and don’t worry about under or over cooking the pork
- Can be made ahead and it’s great for meal prep throughout the week.
- Skip marinating because the pork will marinate and cook at the same time in the bag.

Water Displacement method for closing the pork chop bag.
I do not seal my bags with a vacuum and seal system. I use the water displacement method.
With the bag still open, slowly lower the bag into the water. The pressure of the water should force out most all of the air giving good contact of the heated water to the meat.
Why does the time vary so much with sous vide pork chops?
The reason the timing is one to four hours is that there will not be carry over cooking because the water temperature is constant. The meat can’t go over the temperature that the water is set.
The Sous Vide boneless pork chops will be ready in an hour but you have up to 4 hours to pull them from the water. That is what the 4 hour mark is for.
Is there additional time to cook frozen pork chops sous vide?
If you put the chops in frozen, I would add an additional 20 minutes to the initial cooking time.
Sous Vide Pork Chop ingredients:
- Boneless pork chops
- Salt
- Pepper
- Rosemary
- Oil
- heavy cream
Sous Vide Boneless Pork Chops Directions:
- Season both sides of the boneless pork chops with salt, pepper and rosemary.
- Place in either sous vide bags or in my case, freezer zip top quart bags.
- Fill a container or pot with enough water to fully submerge the bags. Be sure to protect the surface your pot will be resting on with a hot pad or trivet
- The time and temperature below is given for pork chops that are around 1 1/2-inches thick. Add 15 minutes to the minimum time for each half inch if you have thicker double-cut chops. (see temperature chart below)
- With the bag still open, slowly lower the bag into the water. The pressure of the water should force out most all of the air giving good contact of the heated water to the meat.
- Once the meat is below the water line and the two sides of the bag have touched from the pressure of the water, close the bag 3/4 of the way and clip it to the side of the pot.
- Set your timer and walk away.
How to finish sous vide pork chops.
- Pull the pork chops from the bag and reserve the juices in the bag.
- Place them on a clean plate while your heavy bottom pot heat to high.
- Drizzle a bit of oil in the bottom of the pan and sear your boneless pork chops in the oil.
Note: I suggest a vegetable oil as it has a higher smoke point than olive oil. You are welcome to use olive oil, it just might be a bit smoky in your house.
Remove your sous vide boneless pork chops to a serving plate while you make your simple cream sauce.
Simple cream sauce for pork chops
- Add 1/2 cup of heavy cream along with the extra juices that were in the sous vide bag.
- Scrape all the yummy bits off the bottom of the pan to add extra flavor to the sauce.
- Allow to reduce down so that the sauce stays in place when a line is drawn through it.
- Sauce your sous vide pork chops and serve.
