Cedar-Plank Apple Pork Chops

Pork chops and apples have always been a good idea—this version just gives them smoke, caramelized edges and a sweet-smoky garlic rub that makes the whole thing feel restaurant-worthy. The cedar plank quietly does the hard work while you take the compliments.

Method
 

  1. Heat grill to medium and preheat the soaked plank over direct heat until it begins to smoke. Move plank to indirect heat.
  2. Rub pork chops with Ellbee's Rosemary Olive Oil, Ellbee's Sweet & Smoky Gourmet Garlic, salt and pepper. Make a loose bed of apple slices on the plank and set chops on top; tuck remaining apples around them.
  3. Close lid and cook until pork reaches 145°F, 25 to 35 minutes. Brush apples and chops with Ellbee's Honey Ginger Balsamic Vinegar during the final 8 minutes.
  4. Rest chops 5 minutes, then sprinkle with thyme and serve with the cedar-roasted apples.

Notes

Time: 55 min
Kitchen tip: Choose a firm, tart-sweet apple. It will soften and caramelize without collapsing into applesauce on the plank.
