Peach Habanero Glazed bone in Pork Chop with Mexican Street Corn and grilled potatoes.

Okay Okay.. this my last play on @WaterRat 's Blackberry Habanero Glaze.

This version is made with Peach Bourbon and still 3 habaneros. I don't know if it's the bourbon vs the wine.. but this is the first one that's really thickened up and felt like a real glaze to me. It definitely pairs well with the pork..

The elote or Mexican Street Corn seems like an odd pairing... grilling is grilling!!

Grilled baby potatoes - rubbed with olive oil, kosher salt, black pepper and garlic powder. Grilled for 25 min ish (started first)
 
Wow kc that's a great looking plate ! Love the char/glaze on that chop and the corn also looks amazing !

Thank you! The peach preserves helped with that char and the corn is now added to the regular rotation! First time making it but definitely not the last!
 
That looks and sounds so good.

Habenero and peach are two flavors that go very well together.A local bar here does something similar but with chicken and its more a sauce than a glaze but damn good.

Thank you !

This one thickened up quite nicely and stuck to the pork fairly well... I'm definitely making this one again.. The original idea from @WaterRat was Blackberry and Habanero. After duplicating that one I tried a Cherry Habanero version that was tasty as heck.. just didn't thicken up as much as this Peach version did
 
Looks good! as @normanaj said peach/habanero is a great flavor combo. I haven't done any corn yet this year but that makes me hungry for some. Great color on the chop, yum!
 
Is the peach/habanero spicy?

No.. they balance each other out.. the spicy and the sweet.. I don't like making things that burn off your taste buds.. I like making things that taste amazing.

You can adjust the heat by adding or subtracting Habaneros but 3 seems to be the magic number for me.

Post up pics when you do! It'll work on all kinds of pork cuts not just pork loins.

I've also made a blackberry habanero, a cherry habanero and my favorite so far is pineapple habanero all on pork tenderloins.

Owwww.. now the pineapple sounding better than peach. The wife is very interested now. Will post pics, probably do peach and pineapple.

One last question. Do you brine your pork chops?
I did not brine this particular one.. but you certainly can if you want to.

I cook pork to 145F and it's always tender and juicy!
 
I haven't made porkchops in maybe 10 yrs. Kinda excited. Finding pineapple bourbon might be a little tricky and need to get online. But thanks again
