There's a meat market that opened some steak houses many years back in Houston named Perry's. One of their signature dishes is a monster pork chop that has about 3 ribs worth of meat on it. I always assumed they slow cooked it, then waited until you ordered it and threw it on the grill to warm it up when you ordered it.

It appears that's not at all what they do. It looks like they grill it to sear it and give it some color and then vacuum bag it and cook it in water (sous vide style). Then when you order it they cook it in a microwave in the bag. They sell them in the vacuum sealed bags at their meat market now and you can microwave them at home. I know many would think this would taste crappy but no, just the opposite, it's one of the best pieces of pork you'll ever eat. Even my super foodie and great cook girlfriend was really impressed.
