Smoked Glazed Pork Loin Chops


Ingredients

  • 1 pkg Meyer Heritage Duroc Pork bone-in loin chops (2 6-ounce center cut bone-in chops)
  • Cajun seasoning to taste
  • Aleppo pepper (optional)
  • BBQ sauce to taste
  • 2 tsps Honey

Preparation

1. Season with the Cajun seasoning lightly. Sprinkle with Aleppo Pepper. This provides a slow building heat flavor with earthy- cumin-like undertones. It meshes well with the glaze for a sweet & spicy finish.

2. Smoke the chops at 225 degrees until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees.

3. While the pork is smoking, mix the glaze in a heat-safe saucepan.  Add the BBQ sauce and honey together until they reach a light consistency. I used @psseasoning Peach Buzz Bourbon BBQ sauce.  It complimented the pork well.

4. Glaze the chops at 140 degrees internal temperature.  Remove when they hit at least 145 degrees and that the sauce has 'set'.

5. Remove and serve with freshly grilled veggies.
