Lump charcoal rules

There is something about natural lump charcoal and pork that go so well together. It just tastes different than using briquettes. Try this at home. Pick up a bag of lump charcoal, and some sweet wood chips (apple, peach, maple, et).

1) Top loin chops, 1.5" thick, salt and pepper them with a hint of garlic powder.
2) Get your charcoal going in a chimney starter (takes 20+ minutes), pour into weber grill.
3) Put meat on grill, liberally sprinkle dry wood chips, heat should be medium high but not blazing
4) Grill pork chops and sprinkle chips as needed to add smoke
5) Cook to medium
6) Let rest 10 minutes covered, it will rise to just a bit to above medium but not medium well. Pour meat juices over the chops to serve with side dishes of your choice. Mac-n-chees, apples are always good.

Enjoy!
 
Lump is pretty nifty. Especially the fireworks display as it's getting started in the chimey.

It's burns HOT too. Great for searing. I grab the grate off grill and throw it over a chimney full of lump and sear tuna steaks. YUM.

But i got some yummy bone-in ribeye's about 1.5inch thick. way to much for me to eat in one setting yumm.

meh, I get mine from the local "superstore" - meirs, krogers, costcoe, etc.

Speaking of steak....1.5 is the least you should get. I love walking upt to the butcher at Meier/Kroger and asking for 1.75". He's like "you sure?", and I say "yeah...I'm grilling", with a friendly nod he says "you got it."
