Orange juice concentrate and maple syrup add a one-two punch of sweetness to smokinâ flavors. With a method thatâs as easy as âwhisk and grill,â youâd be crazy not to fix extras. âBilly Hensley, Temperance, Michigan Ingredients:
1/2 cup maple syrup |
1/2 cup thawed orange juice concentrate |
3 tablespoons chopped chipotle peppers in adobo sauce |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon pepper |
8 bone-in pork loin chops (8 ounces each and 3/4 inch thick) |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the first five ingredients. Set aside 1/3 cup for serving.
2. Moisten a paper towel with cooking oil; using long-handled tongs, lightly coat the grill rack. Grill pork chops, covered, over medium heat or broil 4-5 in. from the heat for 4-5 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 145°, basting frequently with orange mixture. Let chops stand for 5 minutes before serving with reserved sauce. Yield: 8 servings.
