Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 1/2 cups ketchup
1/4 cup sorghum syrup
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon ancho chile powder
1/2 habanero chile, finely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 bone-in center-cut or porterhouse pork chops (at least 1-inch thick)
Canola oil, for brushing
2 tablespoons Bobby's Spice Rub for Pork, recipe follows
1/4 cup ancho chile powder
2 tablespoons ground coriander
2 tablespoons dry mustard
2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon chile de arbol powder or cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon dried oregano

Steps:

  • Combine the ketchup, sorghum, vinegar, mustard, ancho powder, habanero and some salt and pepper in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Set aside about 1/2 cup for serving; keep warm.
  • Prepare a grill for medium-high indirect heat. Brush the top of the pork chops lightly with canola oil, and rub the oiled side with the spice rub. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • Place the chops rub-side down over direct heat on the grill and cook until charred, about 4 minutes. Brush the tops with canola oil, flip, and cook for 1 minute, just to brown the bottom a bit. Brush the tops generously with barbecue sauce; shift them over to indirect heat and cook, covered, until a meat thermometer registers an internal temperature of 150 degrees F, about 5 minutes. Remove the chops from the grill, brush them with more of the sauce and let rest, loosely tented, for 10 minutes. Serve with the reserved BBQ sauce.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the ancho, coriander, mustard, paprika, pepper, salt, chile de arbol, cumin and oregano until blended. Store in a cool, dark place, tightly covered, for up to 6 months.
  • Yield: about 1 1/2 cups

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: A good pork shoulder or butt roast is ideal for this recipe, as it has a good amount of fat that will help keep the meat moist during cooking.
  • Make sure the pork is at room temperature before cooking: This will help it cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the pork: Pork should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, and 165 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
  • Let the pork rest before carving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
  • Serve the pork with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

This Java spice rub for pork is a delicious and easy way to add flavor to your next pork dish. The rub is made with a blend of spices that are commonly found in Indonesian cuisine, including cumin, coriander, and turmeric. The rub is also easy to make and can be stored in an airtight container for up to 6 months. So next time you're looking for a new way to cook pork, give this Java spice rub a try.
