Nancy,

This sounds absolutely delicious. Do you rub the chops ahead of time or right before you grill?

 

[Nancy]

I've done it both ways. Ahead of time for more flavor, but it works well just before too. I also used on the George Forman grill with deboned chops. Good there too. It's spicy. The sugar in it does make a dark coating. So grill the meat a little farther away from the coals.

How many spices do you have? Mama had many too. she kept her's in refrigerator..said they kept longer...They are so expensive..I have to throw away many after the Holidays. Bonnie

 

[Nancy]

I have lot of spices. They're what makes food flavorful. I buy them as cheaply as possible. Some of the cheaper ones are better. CVS pharmacy and a lot of the dollar stores carry spices at $1.00 per jar. And they're big jars. Hardly a meal goes by that there isn't some kind of spice involved.

Spices keep for a very long time, as long as they're dry.

Ok, I'll bite!

Another Porck Chop recipe!!!

Rub thick pork loin chops with chopped rosemary, chopped garlic, sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Put 1/4 cup of olive oil into sautee pan, with 1 tablespoon of butter. Brown the meat on both sides. Remove from pan. Add 1-1/2 cups red wine to the pan. Scrape up all of the wee bits, and simmer the "sauce" for about 5 minutes to reduce, adding 3 cups of grapes, after about 2 minutes. Simmer. Add the cops back into the pan, and simmer on both sides for another 5 mintues or so. Remove the cops, place on a platter. Simmer the liquid a bit more to reduce, and just before pouring over the chops, you "could" add another 2 tablespoons of butter to the sauce. Of course, I know all of the heart healthy people here wouldn't dream of doing that! I've served this twice this summer for dinner parties, and it was a smashing hit~Marybeth

Rub for pork chops.

Well, I gues I am just going to have to try that rub! But it will be on chicken breasts or fish, I don't eat a lot of pork, and well, since I may be getting a pig valve. . .

O.K. Nancy you've made me hungry and all I can think of is this "Rub", so it's off to the store I go for some chops and ingredients. I'll let ya know what happens later this evening.

nancy's rub would make a great gift..Just mix ..say..6 times the amount for 1 time..Blend and put in old Jelly jars, mayo jars, ect. and write in ingredients on a label and tie a ribbon around the top. Great around the Holidays. Well Hello Joe. What a fine looking Hubby you got there Nancy..Maybe Ann and I will come kidnap him Bonnie

 

[Nancy]

He'd probably like that Bonnie!

 

[bvdr]

I can see why you work so hard to keep him around Nancy. You both have a good week-end alright?

 

[Ross]

Are those pepper measurements correct? I did as posted and had a flaming mouth. I think next time, I don't use the pepper.

 

[Nancy]

It's correct, but it is a hot recipe. Sounds like you will need to adjust next time. I made it for Joe w/o the pepper on Saturday because his stomach was in a turmoil. It was good too. But he usually likes it that hot.

 

[Ross]

I myself don't have a problem with it, but that squawking old lady of mine, well she don't get along with nothin spicy. I like something that'll clear out my sinuses, but not so with her. Next time around, I'll try it without the pepper and see what she thinks then.

 

[Nancy]

Joe finds the lack of salt is counteracted by the hot stuff. You know how hot stuff goes, some like it hot and some don't.
