Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine Gouda cheese, bacon, parsley, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper together in a bowl.
• Cut each pork chop from one side through the middle horizontally to within 1/2 inch of the other side. Open the two sides and spread them out like an open book. Stuff cheese mixture into each pocket and close; secure with a wooden toothpick. Coat each stuffed pork chop with olive oil.
• Whisk egg in a bowl. Mix bread crumbs, salt, and black pepper to taste together in a separate bowl. Carefully dip each stuffed pork chop in the egg; press chop into bread crumb mixture until evenly coated. Place breaded pork chops in a 9x13-inch casserole dish.

STUFFED BACON-CHEDDAR BBQ BURGER

Steps:

• Combine ground round, ground chuck, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
• In another bowl, combine the coarsely shredded sharp cheddar and cooked bacon pieces.
• Let bacon and cheese mixture sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes to get soft.
• Then, shape mixture into balls (for however many burgers you would like to make). Form 2 patties of meat and place one cheese/bacon ball in between them.
• Pinch the sides together to seal in cheese ball. Gently press formed patty, to spread out cheese ball. Continue until all patties are formed.
• Cook burgers on grill over medium flame for about 7 minutes on each side.
• While burgers are grilling, slice sweet Vidalia onions and sauté them in a skillet with 1 tablespoon of butter. Once onions become translucent (about 4 minutes), add some sweet barbecue sauce.
• Flip burgers, and baste the cooked side of the patties with the same sweet barbecue sauce used in the onions.
• After about 7 minutes longer, the burger should be done (these are big thick burgers and may take longer to grill to your liking).
• Baste again with sweet barbecue sauce before removing from grill.
• Butter hamburger buns and place on top rack of grill for several minutes, until toasted.
• To build burger, take toasted bun, add patty, and top with smothered barbecue onions. You can add tomato or lettuce, if you'd like, but the flavors are great without them.

GRILLED TRIPLE CHEESE AND BACON STUFFED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat Grill.
• Fry the bacon in a frying pan over medium/low heat until it is very crispy. Wrap in paper towel once done to drain the fat off and set aside until completely cool.
• Rinse and pat dry the pork chops.
• Turn chops onto their side (fat side down) and cut a pouch lengthwise down the chop -- leave about 1/4" from each end be sure to not slice down all the way through the chop to the other side.
• Season all 3 chops inside and out with half of the seasoning salt. Reserve the remaining salt for the stuffing.
• In a small bowl, crumble all the bacon and then combine the cheeses, parsley and the remaining 1/4 tsp of the seasoning salt. Toss well with hands.
• Equally divide the stuffing between the 3 chops by filling the pouches of each with the mixture.
• With cooking twine or toothpicks ( I prefer twine ) close, as tightly as you can, the pouch of each pork chop.
• Grill over medium heat 6-8 minutes on each side depending on the thickness of your chops.
• Be sure to use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature and to ensure that you DO NOT OVER COOK! You should reach at least 145 degrees (the USDA has reduced their recommended internal temperature on pork chops down from 160 degrees due to the potential to overcook when trying to reach 160 degrees).
• **I grilled my almost 2" chops for 5 min on each side and then flipped again and rotated the chop 1/4 turn (to create a crisscross grill pattern) and grilled each side again for about 3 minutes. I removed from the heat when the internal temperature was about 150 degrees and then loosely covered with aluminum foil and let rest for about 3-5 minutes and then be sure to REMOVE the twine or toothpicks before serving.**.
