Apple Cider Glazed Pork Chops
Ingredients:
- 1.5 lb Pork Chops bone-in
Rub
- 2 tbsp Coconut Sugar
- 2 tsp Chili Powder
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1 tsp Sea Salt
- .5 tsp Ground Black Pepper
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
Apple Cider Glaze
- 1.5 c Apple Cider
- .25 c Maple Syrup
- 1 tbsp Dijon Mustard
- .5 tsp Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
- .5 tsp Sea Salt
Instructions:
- Heat your cast iron pan or grill pan over medium-high heat.
- In a small saucepan, prepare the glaze by combining the apple cider, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, crushed red pepper flakes, and salt. Bring to a simmer. While the cider comes to a simmer, prepare the pork rub. In a small bowl combine the brown sugar, chili powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly with a fork. Add the oil to the spice mixture. It will be the consistency of a crumbly paste. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels, and then cover the chops on all sides with the spice rub.
- Put the spice covered pork chops on the heated grill, and thoroughly brush with the cider glaze. Grill for about 6 minutes. Flip the chops and thoroughly brush with the glaze on the other side. Grill for about 2 more minutes, flip and brush again. Repeat this process until the chops cook for 10-12 minutes total, and reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees. Its okay for pork to have a little pink in the middle.
