Preparation

Peel and halve the shallots. Pluck the thyme from the stalks. Place the shallots, thyme, honey and lime juice in a pan and season with salt and pepper. Cover with baking paper and simmer at a low temperature for 15-20 minutes. Stir occasionally.
Clean the vegetables, cut lengthwise into wedges, mix with the other ingredients and vacuum-seal in the container. Marinate for approx. 20 minutes at room temperature.
Preheat the grill to 300 °C with the lid closed. Season the chops with salt and pepper. Grease the grill rack with oil and grill the meat on the boost zone for 3-4 minutes. Grill the vegetables by eye until a pattern appears. Turn occasionally.
Then reduce the heat to 160 °C and grill for a further 5-6 minutes. Insert the core temperature probe and set the desired target temperature (optimum core temperature approx. 58-62 °C). Leave the meat to rest for a further 5 minutes without heat. Grill the vegetables until al dente.
To serve, cut the chops, top with shallots and garnish with root vegetables.
