Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Pork Chop Recipes

Steps:

• Cream cheese and bacon should be room temperature for easier handling.
• Season pork chops with garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper, then pound to about 1/4" thickness.
• Put cream cheese (1-2 tablespoons) onto the center of each flattened pork chop.
• Roll the pork chops closed (to keep the cream cheese inside).
• Wrap each pork chop in one to two pieces of bacon (depending on how big your pork chops are). Secure with a toothpick.
• Place the pork chops in a lightly greased baking dish, and bake for 30 minutes at 400 degrees.
• Broil for 5 minutes to crisp the bacon.

Steps:

• Place 1 cup of the salt, the brown sugar, peppercorns, mustard and vinegar in a 6-quart container and stir until the salt and sugar dissolve. Let the mixture sit for 5 to 10 minutes. Add the ice cubes and stir to melt most of the ice. Add the chops and make sure they are submerged in the brine. Cover and refrigerate 25 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F with the oven rack in the center of the oven.
• Remove the chops from the brine, rinse and pat dry. Holding a knife parallel to the cutting board, cut a deep 2-inch-wide pocket into the side of each pork chop.
• Combine the cornbread, walnuts, dried cherries, raisins, pepper, sage, 2 teaspoons salt and the buttermilk in a mixing bowl. Place about 1/4 cup of the stuffing into the pocket of each chop. Brush both sides of each chop with the oil.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet until smoking hot, about 600 degrees F. Add the chops to the pan and cook until well seared, about 5 minutes per side.
• Transfer the pan to the oven and cook about 12 minutes more or until the internal temperature of the chops reaches 140 degrees F for medium. Be sure to temp the chops in the thickest part of the meat close to the bone, not in the stuffing. Let the chops rest 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Cut 3 slices bacon into 1/4-inch wide slices. Cook in medium saucepan over medium-high heat until crisp; drain.
• Carefully pour all but 1 tablespoon grease from pan. Add butter and apple cider; bring to a boil. Remove from heat; stir in cooked bacon, cornbread stuffing mix, apple, cranberries and pecans. If needed, add addition cider to moisten stuffing.
• Place 4 remaining slices of bacon about 2 inches apart down center of 15x10x1-inch baking sheet. Cut down center of tenderloin but not all the way through; lay flat on top of bacon slices.
• Spoon stuffing down center of tenderloin; wrap bacon slices around tenderloin, overlapping on top. Secure with wooden picks.
• Bake 40 to 45 minutes until internal temperature of stuffing reaches 160 degrees F. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F. Spray 15x10x1-inch pan with cooking spray, or line with cooking parchment paper.
• In thick side of each pork chop, cut a slit about 2 inches deep and 3 inches long to form a pocket (do not cut in half.) In small bowl, mix cheese, bacon and 4 teaspoons of the barbecue sauce. Spoon generous tablespoonfuls cheese mixture into each pocket; pinch edges of pork together, and secure with toothpick.
• Sprinkle both sides of pork with salt and pepper. In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook pork chops in oil 1 to 2 minutes, turning once, just until lightly browned. Place pork chops apart on pan.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until meat thermometer inserted in thickest part of pork reads 145°F. In small microwavable bowl, microwave remaining barbecue sauce covered on High 45 to 60 seconds or until heated through.
• Before serving, remove toothpicks from pork chops. Brush chops with warm barbecue sauce; garnish with green onion. Serve with mashed potatoes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Carefully slice the pork tenderloins open lengthwise, butterfly-style (not all the way through to the other edge). In nonstick skillet, in olive oil over medium high heat, sear pork tenderloins until browned on both sides. Remove to meat cutting board. Open tenderloins and pound flatter. Close and sprinkle liberally with seasoning salt on both sides, top and bottom. In medium bowl, combine broccoli, Monterey Jack, Cheddar cheese and salt. Open each tenderloin along the fold and fill with broccoli mixture. Carefully close pork over the filling. On bacon rack in microwave oven, cook bacon (covered with paper towel) until cooked but still pliable. Reserve bacon fat. Wrap each tenderloin in 4 pieces of bacon. Place stuffed, bacon-wrapped tenderloins in 9 x 13-inch (23 x 33 cm) casserole dish and pour reserved bacon fat over meat. Bake approximately 25 to 30 minutes (basting half way with juices in pan), or until instant read thermometer reads 155°F (68°C). Smaller pieces of pork tenderloin will be cooked sooner. Keep that in mind. Check internal temperature of pork after 20 minutes. Yield: 4 servings 1 serving 631.6 calories 70.6 g protein 35.6 g fat 2.8 g net carbs
