Hickory Chops With Red-Eye Barbecue Sauce
- 1 12 teaspoons whole black peppercorns
- 1 12 teaspoons whole mustard seeds
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 12 teaspoons brown sugar
- 1 12 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 12 teaspoon ground cumin
- 14 teaspoon cayenne
- 14 teaspoon ground cloves
- 4 ounces country ham, diced
- 1 cup brewed coffee
- 12 cup ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon prepared mustard
- 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
- 12 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
- 4 boneless center cut pork chops, 1 1/2 inches thick
- vegetable oil
- hickory chips, soaked in water for at least 30 minutes
- Make the rub: using a mortar and pestle or spice grinder, grind the peppercorns and mustard seeds; combine with the remaining rub ingredients in a small bowl.
- Make the sauce: heat a saute pan over high heat until smoking hot.
- Fry the country ham until dark brown and crusty, 5-6 minutes; decrease heat and carefully add the coffee and 1/2 cup water.
- Whisk in the remaining sauce ingredients; simmer until 1 cup of liquid remains, about 30 minutes.
- Strain and reserve until ready to serve.
- Coat the pork chops with the rub and lightly brush or spray with vegetable oil; allow to stand at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before grilling.
- Follow the grill's instructions for using wood chips; sear the pork chops over direct high heat for 6 minutes, turning once halfway through searing time.
- Continue grilling over indirect medium heat until the juices run clear, 6-8 minutes.
- Serve immediately with warmed sauce.
