Bourbon Glazed Pork Chops

MMM, doesn't that look great??  Yes indeed....I know that I tend to favor Steak...But there is something to be said for Pork Chops...

.
The glaze on these chops is irresistible thanks to a combination of flavor notes from sweet to spicy to smokey...


INGREDIENTS:

• 6 (1/2 inch thick; 1 pound total) smoked bone-in pork rib chops
• 1 teaspoon(s) dry mustard
• 1/4 teaspoon(s) cayenne pepper
• 1 tablespoon(s) light-brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon(s) bourbon
• 1 tablespoon(s) safflower oil

DIRECTIONS:

1. Place pork chops on a paper-towel-lined tray, and pat dry. Combine mustard and cayenne pepper, and evenly season chops. Stir together sugar, bourbon, and 2 tablespoons water.
2. Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Sear pork chops in batches until browned, about 2 minutes on each side (turn heat down if necessary to keep browned bits from burning). Remove chops from pan, and lower heat. Add bourbon mixture, scrape up browned bits with a wooden spoon, and cook for 30 seconds, until reduced to a glaze. Return chops to pan, and cook, flipping, until chops are warmed through and completely glazed, about 1 minute.

Enjoy tonight! (I am) Eat well my friends!
