Simple Grilled Tuscan Pork Chops
- 6 whole Pork Rib Chops, 3/4" Thick
- 16 ounces, fluid Zesty Italian Salad Dressing
- 1/4 cups Good Balsamic Vinegar
- 18 cups Honey
- 1/2 teaspoons Black Pepper, Ground Fresh
- 1 sprig Fresh Rosemary
- Put the chops in a gallon-size zip-top bag, and dump in the salad dressing.
- Seal the bag, removing the excess air, and shake to coat the chops well.
- Refrigerate the chops and let them marinate 4-6 hours.
- Remove the chops from the bag and shake off the excess marinade.
- Set them aside on a platter.
- Pour the marinade into a small sauce pan and add the balsamic, honey, and black pepper.
- Bruise the rosemary by rolling it several times gently under a rolling pin.
- Add the rosemary to the sauce pan and bring the mixture to a slight boil over medium heat.
- Boil the liquid gently for five minutes then remove from the heat.
- This kills any nasties that were hanging out in the marinade.
- Start your grill and prepare for direct grilling over medium-high heat (400-450 degrees ).
- Grill the chops until they readily release from the grate, about three minutes.
- Rotate the chops 45 degrees and continue cooking for about two minutes.
- Note: These cooking times are approximate, and they are based on chops that are about 3/4 thick.
- Your mileage may vary.
- Flip the chops over and grill three minutes more.
- Brush the chops generously with the finishing sauce.
- Rotate the chops 45 degrees and continue cooking for about two minutes more.
- Brush them with another good dose of the finishing sauce.
- Remove the chops to a platter and, brush them with the sauce again and let them rest five minutes.
