Here's what I and a fellow 'Head had last nite:

Deviled Chops
Wilted Lettuce
Steamed/Grilled Corn-On-The-Cob


"Deviled Chops

4 pork chops, 1 inch thick

4 tbs country-style Dijon mustard (with seeds)

2 tsps olive oil

1/4 cup finely slivered fresh basil leaves

1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper

1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

Note:  I used two, large butterflied pork chops and Marne Dutch Grained
Mustard - some cheap stuff I found in one o'those Dollar stores for a
buck a jar - ittiz WONDERFUL!  Used a titch more than 1/4 tsp cayenne.

Trim all but 1/4 to 1/2 inch fat from the edges of the chops.  Slash
remaining fat with a knife at 1-inch intervals.  (Not necessary with
butterflieds...).

In a small bowl, combine the mustard, olive oil, basil and peppers. 
Spread this mixture over the pork chops.  Let stand, covered, one hour.

Preheat grill.

If using presoaked wood chips, or other flavorings, sprinkle them over
the hot coals or lava rocks.  Brush the grid lightly with vegetable oil.

Sear the chops over hot or high heat 1 minute per side, including
edges.  Then cover - cook with vents open over medium-hot heat 8 minutes
per side."

Note:  Did on my "Gourmet Smoker" - VERY slowly and never had to turn
chops.  In doing this way, didn't get the great goop all over the grill
and you don't lose any.  It kind'a crusts on there due to the smoking
and is just WONDERFUL.  Was very warm (sweat on back o'neck) without
being too and just DELISHIOUS!

I'd like to add the other two recipes, but would make this so very long
and some folks mite not like that.  Too, some folks mite not be
interested in those two recipes.  Would like to include them because the
three items together complemented each other so damn well.

If anyone would like them, let me know.  I'll post them or e-mail them
to you.

P.S.  I izz a gull, not a guy!  <g>
