Ingredients

2 tablespoons Jack Daniels Whiskey

Marinate meat at least 2 hours, or up to overnight in the refrigerator. Marinating in a ziploc bag with most of the air squeezed out works great to maximize contact between meat and marinade.

If pan fried, can deglaze pan with a bit of water and/or white wine to have a very nice sauce.

Time 1h55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1 head garlic
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 ⅓ cups dark brown sugar
1 cup pineapple juice
⅔ cup water
¼ cup teriyaki sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
3 tablespoons lemon juice
3 tablespoons minced white onion
1 tablespoon bourbon whiskey
1 tablespoon crushed pineapple
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Cut about 1/2-inch from the top of the garlic head. Trim the roots so the garlic sits flat. Remove some of the outer layers of papery skin from the garlic, leaving enough so that the cloves stay together. Put garlic into a small casserole dish or baking dish, drizzle olive oil over it, and cover with a lid or aluminum foil.
Roast garlic in preheated oven until the cloves are soft, about 1 hour.
Stir brown sugar, pineapple juice, water, teriyaki sauce, and soy sauce together in a saucepan and bring to a boil; reduce heat to low and keep at simmer.
Squeeze sides of the garlic until the pasty roasted garlic emerges. Measure 2 teaspoons roasted garlic into the saucepan and incorporate into the sauce with a whisk. Reserve remaining roasted garlic for another use.
Stir lemon juice, white onion, bourbon whiskey, pineapple, and cayenne pepper into the sauce; bring to a simmer and cook until the volume of the liquid reduces by half and is thick and syrup-like, 40 to 50 minutes.

Tips:

To achieve the best flavor, use high-quality pork chops. Look for chops that are thick and evenly marbled.
Don't overcook the pork chops. Overcooked pork chops will be dry and tough. Cook them over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
Use a good quality Jack Daniel's whiskey. This will give the pork chops a delicious smoky flavor.
If you don't have Jack Daniel's whiskey, you can use another type of whiskey or bourbon. However, Jack Daniel's is the best choice for this recipe.
Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides. Some good options include mashed potatoes, green beans, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Jack Daniel's Thai Pork Chops are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The pork chops are tender and juicy, and the sauce is flavorful and slightly sweet. This recipe is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
