Grilled Pork Chop

[Dbaxx]

Does anybody have one? Just 1/2 inch-bone in chops. Looking for something quick, easy and tasty to throw on the grill. I usually do the Italian Dressing route, but am looking for something different. With the local chefs around here, I figured you guys have got something good your holding back. TIA!

I'm all for a good BBQ sauce myself. How abut Ketchup? Don't knock it until you've tried it.

No thanks.

Italian Dressing is the best marinade Ive found. e. If they are cooked right, they do not need any sauce, especially ketchup. But if I was using anything, it would be 57 sauce.

A few thoughts:

 

Classic Vietnamese- 2:1 Sweet chili and fish sauce marinade (both avail at any asian grocery, both will become valued addtions to your pantry). Marinate along with some thick red onion rings. Grill both and serve with chopped cilantro and mint. Traditionally it is served over a rice noodle salad dressed with equal parts rice vinegar, fish sauce, and sweet chili.

 

Another Italian option- Just salt, pepper, and a thin coating of olive oil (too much and the grill will flame making the oil taste nasty). Par-boiled red potatoes cut in half are nice to grill along with this. Top with a sauce of chopped parsley (lots), minced garlic, salt, lemon juice, and olive oil.

Here's an easy one that I'll do:

 

1/2 cup red wine vinegar

1/4 cup sugar

whole peppercorns

 

combine and reduce in pan

 

Puree 2 mangos and then whisk with reduction.

 

Let cool.

 

Season chops with salt and olive oil. Grill chops. When done spoon sauce over chops.

last week, i ordered the pork chops at my current favorite little family-owned italian joint, described on their menu thusly:

Maple Pork Chops

Two 7oz. grilled pork chops with a

fresh rosemary, pancetta, orange

juice and maple syrup glaze.

 

they were really good

 

edit: sounds VERY close to bier's recipe

I often make these "Pantry Pork Chops". Right off of Weber.com

 

For the marinade:

1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

3 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1/2 teaspoon light brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

 

4 pork rib chops, about 1-1/4 inches thick each

 

 

To make the marinade: In a medium bowl whisk together the marinade ingredients.

 

Place the chops in a large, resealable plastic bag and pour in the marinade. Press the air out of the bag and seal tightly. Turn the bag to distribute the marinade, place in a bowl, and refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes.

 

Remove the chops from the bag and discard the marinade. Allow to stand at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes before grilling.

 

Sear the chops over Direct High heat for 6 minutes, turning once halfway through searing time. Continue grilling over Indirect Medium heat until the juices run clear, 6 to 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve warm.

Shhhh. Don't tell WW/DMD but I'd pay TWICE the price just because of this.

Most of these sound pretty good!

 

I most often do center cuts or bone-in chops with a Teriyaki and Orange Juice glaze.....pretty simple to just reduce it in a pan with some finely chopped green onion or shallots....you can add honey too, if you like it a little sweeter.

 

If I'm grilling....then I reduce it by itself and baste on the grill after browning both sides.

 

If I'm pan frying center cuts....I brown one side in butter....turn the chops, then add teriyaki and OJ while the other side is cooking. Remove the chops to a plate and further reduce the glaze if neccessary.

 

Pretty darn easy....

 

Obviously....salt and pepper to taste.

Dry rub is very nice.

 

Black pepper corns, sweet chili powder, cumin, sea salt, garlic and onion powder along with cinnamon(cinnamon is really good with pork). Grind all together and use as a rub. Rub with love(liberal). Braise both sides in olive oil at medium high heat two minutes per side(maybe a tad more if really thick). Take chops out and set aside. Add wine or water(about four to six ounces) to pan and simmer making sure to stir everything from the pan bottom, and then reduce at low for ten to twenty minutes. Pull off, set aside. Take chops and transfer to a baking dish or sheet and bake in a pre heated 300 degree oven for 35 minutes for a perfect medium chop. Take out of oven and let sit for five minutes. Set each chop on top of long grained brown rice or even dressing(that you have made of course) and then pour your reduced liquor over each one. Acrowd pleaser for sure.
