    Since it was only a decade ago that the FDA lowered the cooking temp of pork to 145F along with more modern techniques such as sous vide, I believe there are whole generations that have not had a pork chop that isn't dry. I wouldn't be surprised if pork chops became more popular and given the same level of attention as steaks, especially considering how expensive beef is rn.

    And dry age pork is becoming more prominent. I think you’re right, dry aged pork will become the new NY strip or Ribeye in terms of how much flavor it has but since it’s pork the price will be cheaper. But I wouldn’t be surprised if the price raises after a while

    I could just be very ignorant, and if I am please correct me! But in my experience, there are already many cultures that primarily use pork instead of beef. My own anecdote: in Korea, pork is seen as the meat of everyday meals. Beef is considered a luxury/occasional treat. Same with Japan, most meats they use in everyday meals involve pork, and not beef. Nonetheless, it would be awesome if western cultures (particularly the USA) adopt this approach since pork is delicious (I mean c'mon bacon is love bacon is life). Experimenting with pork could lead to a whole new world of dishes.

    Since when is a Sous Vide temp of 125 F in the safe zone (2:50 min.) ? Those pork chops are being held at 125 F until an order comes in or closing and then they cool then down for another service if they don't fire them. Tell me about 90 minutes or more time between 40 -140 F? Now that is no longer a major safety violation?

You really shouldn’t be playing with those or taking a chance with them. It’s not likely it’ll break or go off from what he’s doing but still I’d come up with another system for the chicken.
