Recipe notes
Our juicy Berkshire pork chops get the dry-rub treatment in this simple summer recipe. Grilling brings out the sweetness in the peaches which are the perfect complement to pork. Choose the best peaches you can find - yellow or white - and grill them when they are still somewhat firm, too ripe and they will fall apart on the grates.
RECIPE Preparation
- In a small bowl, stir together all dry rub ingredients. Pat pork chops dry with a paper towel and season with salt. Generously season with dry rub on both sides. Set aside while grill heats up. Meanwhile, halve peaches and remove pits.
- Heat a gas grill to medium high or heat coals in a charcoal grill until they glow bright orange and ash over. Lightly oil hot grates.
- Place chops on the hot grill and cook about 6 minutes. Using tongs, turn each chop over and continue to cook until medium (about 140 degrees on an instant read thermometer), or until desired doneness. Remove to a platter, tent with foil, and allow to rest for 6-8 minutes.
- While chops are resting, lightly brush cut side of peaches with oil. Place on the grill and cook until peaches are slightly charred and warmed through.
- Serve pork chops with grilled peaches and your favorite side dishes. We suggest a simply dressed field greens salad.
