Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (8 ounce) can pineapple rings, juice drained and reserved
¼ cup brown sugar
¼ cup soy sauce
¼ teaspoon garlic powder

Place the pork chops into the marinade, squeeze out any air in the bag, seal it, and refrigerate overnight. Reserve the pineapple rings.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove the chops from the marinade, shaking off excess, and grill until browned, the meat is no longer pink inside, and the meat shows good grill marks, 5 to 8 minutes per side. Brush several times with marinade and let the marinade cook onto the surface of the meat. Discard excess marinade. While the meat is grilling, place 4 pineapple rings onto the grill, and allow to cook until hot and the slices show grill marks; serve the chops topped with the grilled pineapple rings.

Grilled Pork Chops with Pineapple-Turmeric Glaze image

For this grilled pork chop recipe, don't be afraid of getting a good char. It just means the sugars in the glaze are caramelizing (not that the meat is burning), resulting in deep, complex flavor.

Categories     Bon Appétit     Dinner     Pork Chop     Pork     Pineapple     Honey     Mustard     Grill/Barbecue     Grill     Summer

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Vegetable oil (for grill)
1/2 cup pineapple juice (from a can)
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup unseasoned rice vinegar
3 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
1 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp. toasted sesame oil
1/2 tsp. ground turmeric
4 (1"-thick) bone-in pork chops
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for high indirect heat (for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off; for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side); oil grate. Bring pineapple juice, honey, vinegar, mustard, red pepper flakes, sesame oil, and turmeric to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook, swirling occasionally, until reduced to 3/4 cup, 10-15 minutes. Let cool. Transfer half of sauce to a small bowl and set aside for serving.
  • Season pork with salt. Grill over direct heat until browned all over, about 3 minutes per side. Continue to grill, turning several times and basting with remaining sauce, until charred and coated with a thick layer of glaze, about 4 minutes. Move to cooler part of grill and take internal temperature of pork. If needed, continue grilling over indirect heat until an instant-read thermometer inserted into chops near bone registers 130°F, 1-4 minutes more. Transfer pork chops to a wire rack and let rest 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with reserved sauce alongside.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe pineapple: Select a pineapple that is golden yellow in color and has a sweet, fragrant smell. Avoid pineapples that are green or have brown spots.
  • Use fresh pineapple: Fresh pineapple will yield the best flavor and texture. If you must use canned pineapple, choose unsweetened pineapple packed in 100% pineapple juice.
  • Slice the pineapple evenly: Cut the pineapple into even-sized slices so that they cook evenly. If the slices are too thick, they will not cook through, and if they are too thin, they will become mushy.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet: A heavy-bottomed skillet will help to prevent the pineapple from sticking and burning.
  • Cook the pineapple over medium heat: Cooking the pineapple over medium heat will help to caramelize the sugars in the pineapple and create a delicious glaze.
  • Stir the pineapple frequently: Stir the pineapple frequently to prevent it from sticking to the pan and to ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Add the glaze at the end: Add the glaze to the pineapple in the last few minutes of cooking to prevent it from burning.

Conclusion:

Glazed pineapple is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. It is a great way to add a touch of sweetness and acidity to your plate. Whether you are serving it with ham, chicken, or fish, glazed pineapple is sure to be a hit. So next time you are looking for a simple and delicious side dish, give glazed pineapple a try. You won't be disappointed!
