Miss Kristi Lou

Fragrant spicy jerk marinated sticky pork chops, caramelised perfectly in the Big Green Egg.

Indirect heat

220 C / 428 F

Ingredients

(serves 2)

2 large free range pork chops

Jerk Marinade 

2 limes zest and juice

1 lime cut into wedges for serving

4 inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped

1 clove garlic grated

2 tbsp honey

3 tbsp olive oil

1 small pinch grated nutmeg

1 tsp fresh ground black pepper

1 good pinch of sea salt

1 tsp whole all spice berries ground

1 scotch bonnet finely chopped

1 tsp fresh thyme

Mix all the marinade ingredients together and rub all over the pork chops, place in the fridge to marinate for at least 30 minutes, a couple of hours is better.

Indirect heat 220 C / 428 F

Cook in your egg, for approximately 3 minutes each side turning only once, remove and leave to rest covered for 5 minutes before serving with wedges of lime.

I like to serve these chops with French fries or buttery mashed potatoes
