I did a search to see if anyone had reviewed this C@H recipe, but after seeing 833 hits, I guess I'll just go ahead and review my own self!! This is a great combination of flavors! and it works great on the grill also.
I brined one (ONE!!!) 8.5 oz. boneless pork loin chop, made about a 1/4 of the rub and let the chop rest 'rubbed' for 30 min. Then grilled 5 min. on each side and brushed the sauce (made 1/2 of this, should have made a 1/4 also) on for the last 5 min. on each side. this worked out to 7 points.
served with grilled red potatoes and grilled asparagus - great dinner!! great flavor combination.
