Time 4h45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, seeds removed, plus 2 tablespoons sauce from the can
4 cloves garlic
4 bay leaves
1 teaspoon ground cumin
3/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Kosher salt
1 large onion, halved and sliced
1 cup canned fire-roasted diced tomatoes
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
6 bone-in pork blade chops (1/2 to 3/4 inch thick; about 3 1/2 pounds total)

Steps:

  • Combine the chiles and adobo sauce, garlic, bay leaves, cumin, thyme, cinnamon and 5 teaspoons salt in a food processor and pulse to make a paste.

Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon seasoned salt (such as LAWRY'S®)
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon ground paprika
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring
4 bone-in pork chops (1/2 to 3/4 inch thick)

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.
  • In a bowl, mix together the seasoned salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, and smoke flavoring until thoroughly combined. Rinse pork chops, and sprinkle the wet chops on both sides with the spice mixture. With your hands, massage the spice rub into the meat; allow to stand for 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • To ensure the pork chops are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The USDA recommends cooking pork chops to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 155°F (68°C) for medium, and 165°F (74°C) for well-done.
  • If you don't have maple syrup, you can substitute honey or brown sugar. However, maple syrup will give the pork chops a more authentic flavor.
  • If you don't have smoked gouda, you can use another type of hard cheese, such as cheddar or Parmesan. However, smoked gouda will give the grits a more smoky flavor.
  • If you don't have time to make the smoked gouda grits, you can use instant grits instead. Just follow the package directions.

Conclusion:

Grilled maple-chipotle pork chops on smoked gouda grits is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The pork chops are tender and flavorful, and the grits are creamy and cheesy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
