Spice Rubbed Grill Pork Chops Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a grill to medium-high heat and brush the grill grates with olive oil.
• Whisk together 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, cumin and allspice in a small bowl. Sprinkle the pork chops with the rub. Grill the pork chops on each side 6 to 7 minutes, for a total of 12 to 14 minutes. Remove the chops to a plate and tent with foil.
• In a small saucepan, melt the butter. Once the butter starts to foam, add the shallot and saute until tender. Add the flour and stir until pasty. Stir in the pomegranate juice, beef stock, red wine vinegar and raspberry preserves. Bring to a simmer while stirring. The sauce will thicken when it begins to simmer. Taste and then season with salt and pepper.
• Serve the pork chops over the rice with sauce ladled over top. Garnish with fresh pomegranate seeds.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl.;
• Combine all ingredients in a small bowl.;
• Preheat grill to medium-high. Reserve 1/2 cup of the Maple-Horseradish Glaze and set aside. Brush pork chops on both sides with olive oil and season with salt. Rub 1 tablespoon of the rub onto 1 side of each pork chop. Grill, rub-side down until golden brown, about 4 to 5 minutes. Brush each chop with some of the Maple-Horseradish glaze and turn over. Continue grilling for 3 to 4 minutes for medium doneness, brushing with some of the glaze. Remove the chops to a platter and brush with the reserved glaze.
• 2 sweet potatoes, cooked 3/4 of the way Spicy Maple Glaze
• Slice the potatoes, crosswise, into 1-inch thick slices. Brush with maple glaze and grill for 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Combine the ketchup, sorghum, vinegar, mustard, ancho powder, habanero and some salt and pepper in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Set aside about 1/2 cup for serving; keep warm.
• Prepare a grill for medium-high indirect heat. Brush the top of the pork chops lightly with canola oil, and rub the oiled side with the spice rub. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Place the chops rub-side down over direct heat on the grill and cook until charred, about 4 minutes. Brush the tops with canola oil, flip, and cook for 1 minute, just to brown the bottom a bit. Brush the tops generously with barbecue sauce; shift them over to indirect heat and cook, covered, until a meat thermometer registers an internal temperature of 150 degrees F, about 5 minutes. Remove the chops from the grill, brush them with more of the sauce and let rest, loosely tented, for 10 minutes. Serve with the reserved BBQ sauce.
• In a bowl, whisk together the ancho, coriander, mustard, paprika, pepper, salt, chile de arbol, cumin and oregano until blended. Store in a cool, dark place, tightly covered, for up to 6 months.
• Yield: about 1 1/2 cups

Steps:

• Make rub: mix all ingredients together in a small bowl or jar (You can store it for a couple of months in a tightly sealed jar.)
• Coat the chops generously with spice rub and let marinate for up to 2 hours at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator. Let refrigerated meat come to room temperature before cooking. Scrape off any excess rub and pat the chops dry.
• In a large, heavy skillet, heat the oil over high heat. When the pan is hot enough to sear the chops but not burn them, add the chops. They should make a gentle hissing sound when they hit the pan, not an explosive sputter. Adjust the heat if the pan seems too hot or remove the pan from the heat for 30 seconds or so (count this time as part of the overall cooking time). Sear the chops on one side for 1 to 2 minutes, or until beginning to brown lightly. Turn the chops over and sear for 1 minute more.
• Reduce the heat so that the chops continue to sizzle -- do not turn the heat so low that there are no more sizzling sounds (if the heat is too low, the chops will sweat and juices will exude from the meat and leave it dry. Cover the pan and cook for 3 to 4 more minutes more on the other side. The chops are done when the meat is firm but not hard when pressed with a finger. Better still, test them with an instant-read thermometer -- the meat should register 145 to 155 degrees and will still be acceptable at 160 degrees. For the juiciest results, remove the chops from the pan when they register 145 degrees, cover loosely with foil, and let them rest for 5 minutes or so before serving, to stabilize the juices.
• To make the pan sauce: pour off all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the pan, leaving any meat juices. Adjust the heat to medium and add garlic. Stir, cook for 30 seconds, then add remaining ingredients, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring the sauce to a boil and reduce it over high heat until it just turns syrupy. Put the pork chops back into the pan and turn them several times in the sauce to transfer the flavors -- this should take no more than 30 seconds. Serve chops with sauce

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
• In a small bowl, combine spices (ginger, paprika, garlic powder, cumin, salt and pepper). Rub mixture over both sides of pork chops. Allow to dry-marinate for 20-30 minutes at room temperature.
• Grill pork chops for 7-10 minutes on each side or until cooked thoroughly (or juices run clear when pricked with a fork).
• Remove pork chops to a serving platter. Top each pork chop with 1 tbs. peach jam (or preserves) and allow to melt. Garnish with fresh peach slices if desired.

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix together garlic, oil, sugar, salt, paprika, pepper, and cayenne until a paste forms. Coat pork chops with paste and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate 1 hour (or up to 3).
• Heat grill to medium-high; clean and lightly oil hot grates. Grill pork, covered, 5 minutes per side for medium. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Combine smoked paprika, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic, and cayenne in a small bowl.

• When the grill is ready, lightly spray chops with avocado oil spray.
• Lightly oil the grill grates, place chops on the grill, and cook for about 3 minutes. Rotate chops 90 degrees to create a criss-cross grill pattern and continue grilling for 3 minutes. Turn chops and grill until pork chops are no longer pink inside, about 4 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Remove to a serving platter and allow to rest under a foil tent, for about 5 minutes. Serve warm.

Steps:

• In a large zip-top bag, combine coriander, brown sugar, cumin, and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Add pork and 1 tablespoon oil and toss to coat. Refrigerate at least 8 hours (or up to 1 day).

• Bake chops in preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
