STUFFED IOWA STEAKS (PORK CHOPS)

Steps:

• Ask your butcher to cut up some inch and half nearly two inch thick bone in pork chops.
• Prepare rub and coat pork chops up to one day before grilling.
• Brown sausage, drain, set aside to cool. Cook down onions in hot oil until slightly brown and translucent. Not looking for the caramelized onions you might put on your burger here. Return sausage to pan, add remaining ingredients for stuffing, heat and then cool to touch.
• Cut center slit in pork chops to the bone, stuff with sausage, onion, fruit mixture. Over stuffing these monsters is okay. A saturated bamboo stick could help hold it together but not necessary.
• Warm marmalade over low heat until slightly liquid form.
• Heat grill to medium high, MOM on a three burner Weber (medium-off-medium) , or about a 7-8 count (hand over heat) for charcoal.
• Grill on indirect heat for 8-10 minutes on first side, flipping and grilling for a remaining 6-8 minutes. This can be one of those times that a fine set of grill marks will pay off big dividends on presentation, so if you're thinking grill marks I am sure you know what to do. When only a few minutes are left coat chop with glaze, being careful not to put on too soon and have sugars burn. Grilling pork can be a personal choice as to when they are done. Because of the moist stuffing, these do not tend to dry out. But with the glaze you can blacken them and give that bitter burnt taste to what was going to be your best meal of summer.
• Check temp of pork chop and remove from heat. Let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. I might use a tinfoil tent from time to time if I need to stretch out the time before serving.

GRILLED APPLE STUFFED IOWA CHOPS

Steps:

• 1. In saute pan, "sweat" onion, garlic, and green apple in olive oil, salt, ground pepper and margarine. Once onions are translucent, turn off heat.
• 2. Stir in entire bag of Stove Top. Mix well, cover and let sit until at room temp. The Stove Top should pull in the moisture from the apple, onion, butter and oil to create a mix that can be balled up.
• 3. With boning or thin blade knife, cut a slit in the pork chop toward the bone from any spot along the meat or fat edge. This slit should be wide enough to put a finger or teaspoon into, and all the way to the bone. You want to create a "pocket" in the chop to stuff the apple/onion mix in to. Gently widen and deepen the slit with your finger, being careful not to puncture the meat from the inside. Punctures will let the stuffing come out.
• 4. With your hands, stuff the apple/onion/Stove Top mixture into the pork chops. If the mixture is crumbly, add slight amounts of water to moisten. Continue this, dividing the mixture amongst the 6 chops.
• 5. Heat grill to High. Sear pork chops on both sides (a little olive oil on chops will transfer heat and allow faster, more even searing). Then stand pork chops up on bone, turn heat to med-high, and let cook 15-20 minutes, checking frequently to make sure no fires pop up. This step heats that tender meat and stuffing next to the bone that would normally only cook after the rest of the chop dries out.
• 6. After bone is blackening, and appears cooked, lay chops back down and allow 4 minutes per side, 3-4 turns.
