Cured Chops with Jalapeno-Cornbread Stuffing

[cowgirl]

I cured a few pork chops yesterday using tenderquick and turbinado sugar....I just let them cure for 3 hours, rinsed and stuffed.

The cured chops...



Then made a stuffing using some jalapeno cornbread. The cornbread already has jalapenos, onions and whole corn, so I just added a few seasonings, butter and a bit of chicken broth to keep it moist.






The chops... locked and loaded....and seasoned with cracked black pepper.



Onto the drum...I used a mix of apple and olive wood.







The chop stuffed with jalapeno cornbread stuffing, some turnip greens, salad and a couple of fried green tomatoes.








Thanks for checking out my japapeno cornbread stuffed chops.
