Provided by winefoot

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 boneless Canadian pork loin chops, 1 - 1 1/2" / 2.5 - 3.75 cm thick
Maple bacon flavoured seasoning, like ClubHouse (La Grille) brand
4 slices thick or extra thick cut bacon, partially cooked, drained and slightly cooled
1/2 cup apricot jam
1/2 cup lightly packed dark brown sugar
3 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoon bourbon

In small saucepan, combine jam, brown sugar, mustard and bourbon, bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 10 minutes. Remove glaze from heat; reserve half the glaze. Preheat barbecue on high. Reduce heat on one side to medium. On lightly oiled grill, sear chops over high heat side, 2-3 minutes per side. Slide chops over to lower heat side. Cook chops an additional 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally and brushing often with glaze. Remove chops from grill when internal temperature reaches 155˚F (68˚C). Tent loosely with foil and allow chops to rest 5 minutes. Remove toothpicks and serve chops with reserved glaze.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality, thick-cut pork chops for the best results.
  • Marinating the pork chops in a mixture of bourbon, olive oil, and spices helps tenderize and flavor the meat.
  • Grilling the pork chops over medium-high heat helps create a nice char while keeping the inside juicy and tender.
  • Baste the pork chops with the remaining marinade while grilling to keep them moist and flavorful.
  • Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
  • Serve the grilled bourbon pork chops with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
