Lunch was SV pork steaks that were cooked about two hours at 141F.

That looks delicious. We used to be able to buy "pork leg steaks" here which looked much like yours. They were a great combination of fat and lean. Haven't seen them for years. Are they raising pigs without legs now?

Thanks, they were pretty tasty. I'm not sure about legs but they still have shoulders🐷  I cut these steaks out of a boston butt that  I was breaking down for sausage.  I think the cut would be roughly equivalent to a beef chuck steak.

That's great information, thanks. Our local grocery has pork shoulder for 1.99/lb this week so I'll definitely pick one up and try slicing it int steaks.
