Grilled Bone-In Pork Chops with Raspberry Chipotle Sauce

Serves 4

These bone-in pork chops are incredibly juicy and flavorful. The brining step locks in the juices, and ensures tenderness at the end. The meat’s flavor profile is further enhanced with an easy-to-make honey-mustard wet rub. With a bit of easy prep, this is a bold entree that's perfect for end-of-summer entertaining.

PORK LOINS:
Ingredients:
4 pork chops, bone-in

Brine:
6 cups ice water
1/4 cup Kosher salt
1/4 cup sugar

Wet Rub:
4 tablespoons Bald Eagle Foods Raspberry Chipotle Sauce
Sprinkle of kosher salt and pepper

Serve with:
Bald Eagle Foods Raspberry Chipotle Sauce

1. Make the brine by stirring together the ice water, kosher salt, and sugar in a large bowl. Add the pork chops, cover and refrigerate for an 1 hour.

2. Remove the pork chops from the brine, and pat dry with a paper towel. Sprinkle both sides with fresh ground pepper, and a light dusting of kosher salt. Rub all sides of the chops with Bald Eagle Foods Raspberry Chipotle Sauce until evenly coated. Let set at room temperature for 30 minutes.

4. Fire up the grill! Place the marinated pork chops on the hot, well-oiled grill, and sear for 3 minutes on each side. Then, turn off one burner (or turn to low) to create a direct/indirect environment. Place the seared chops on the cooler, indirect side, and continue to cook until their internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F.

5. Once the pork chops reach 145 degrees F, place on a clean plate, and cover loosely with a tinfoil "tent" for about 10 minutes. This allows the meat to rest, while continuing to cook to a perfect, juicy medium-rare.

6. Serve pork chops with additional Bald Eagle Foods Raspberry Chipotle Sauce on the side.
