Found some really nice extra thick and meaty Loin Chops at Costco yesterday, I knew right away they were meant for my smoker/grill.
Menu
Loin Chops, Extra Thick with the Full Treatment
Oven Roasted New Potatoes
Green Bean Almondine Casserole
Sauteed Portabellas, Peppers, Onions in Spiced Butter
The Chops
Made an Apple Juice/Apple Vinegar Brine, with brown sugar and salt and brined them for 12 hours.
Then a rinse and dry before a good dusting of a homemade savory rub.
Before laying them down over Cherry in the smoker they got a good Apple juice spritzing.
225°-250° for about 1.5 hours brought the average IT to 130°.
Then it was onto a scorching hot grill and finish at 140°-142° IT.
A nice 30 minute rest while my roasted potatoes finished and then dinner was on.
