Root Beer Glazed Pork Chops
Ingredients List
-
4 (1-inch thick) pork chops
-
3 (12 fluid ounce) cans or bottles root beer
-
salt and pepper to taste
-
1 cup beef stock
-
2 tablespoons brown sugar
-
½ teaspoon chipotle-flavored hot sauce
-
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
-
1 pinch salt, to taste
Instructions
Place the pork chops in a shallow dish and pour two cans of root beer over them. Let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least two hours. Once marinated, remove the chops from the root beer and season with salt and pepper.
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the remaining can of root beer, beef stock, brown sugar, hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Let the mixture simmer until it thickens and reduces to about 3/4 cup. Set aside to cool.
Preheat your outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate to prevent sticking.
Grill the pork chops over medium-high heat for about 8 minutes per side, or until they are no longer pink in the center. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C) when checked with an instant-read thermometer. Brush the chops generously with the reduced sauce and continue grilling for another 2 minutes per side. Remove from the grill and brush with any remaining sauce. Season with salt to taste before serving.
