Grilled Pork Chops and Apple Pear Topping

blog-img

Description

I had yet to eat really good BBQ pork chops and was tired of the few common baking methods, so I decided to try something a bit different. If you are not into sweet flavors, then this recipe for grilled pork chops with apples and pears probably isn't for you.

Ingreadient

    • 1 cup light brown sugar
    • 1 cup soy sauce
    • 1 cup orange juice
    • ½ cup spicy brown mustard
    • ⅓ cup honey
    • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
    • 2 tablespoons ground black pepper
    • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
    • 8 (1/2- to 1-inch thick) pork chops
    • 1 lime, juiced
    • ½ cup butter
    • 1 tablespoon light brown sugar, or to taste
    • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
    • 4 large green apples - peeled, cored, and cut into eighths
    • 4 Bartlett pears - peeled, cored, and cut into eighths

Direction

  1. In a large bowl, mix together 1 cup brown sugar, soy sauce, orange juice, brown mustard, honey, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, and cumin until thoroughly combined and sugar has dissolved. Place pork chops into the bowl and spoon marinade over to cover. Let stand at room temperature for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  2. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove chops from marinade and shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade.
  3. Grill chops on the preheated grill until browned, showing good grill marks, and no longer pink in the center, about 8 minutes per side. Squeeze lime juice over chops as they grill. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a chop should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
  4. Melt butter in a large skillet over high heat, then stir in 1 tablespoon brown sugar and cinnamon; bring mixture to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Stir in apple and pear slices and cook, stirring often, until fruit is coated with butter mixture and softened but not mushy, about 5 minutes. Transfer apple and pear slices to a grilling basket.
  5. Cook fruit slices on the grill until browned, about 5 minutes. Serve grilled fruit with pork chops.
