Here’s grilling food without a grill….
Campfire Stuffed Pork Chops
Ingredients
2 Pork Loin Chops
2 slices Ham
1/2 cup Swiss cheese
Procedure
Cut a deep slit into each chop. The sit should reach the back of the chop, but not break it.
Lay out a piece of ham, sprinkle liberally with cheese, then roll up like a cigar.
Stuff the rolled ham and cheese into the slit of the pork chop. Brush the pork with Olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Wrap the chop in heavy duty aluminum foil.
Start a campfire or add 25 coals to a charcoal grill. When the fire is ready, toss the pork packets directly onto the coals. Let sit undisturbed for 6 minutes then turn. Let sit another 6 minutes then remove and cover with a towel or cooler. Allow to rest 5 minutes. Unwrap, plate, and enjoy.
This is really easy to do, can be made ahead and kept in the fridge or cooler, and the flavor is outstanding. Go ahead and put this together at lunch (or the day before), throw it on the coals at dinner, and in a short bit of time, you’ve got a flavorful treat. And don’t be afraid to experiment with the stuffing. Add mushroom, green onions, garlic, etc, to the ham roll-up!
Check the pics….and you thought it would be dark and burned! That’s physics at work; gotta love it.
