Preparation

In a big airtight container, place the pork chops with the rest of the ingredients of the marinade. Close lid and stir well. Reserve in fridge for 3 hours. Remove from fridge 30 minutes before cooking to cool down meat.
In a bowl, except for the apple, add all the ingredients for the salsa and mix well. Place in fridge until service. Cut the apple and add to the mix right before serving to avoid oxydation.
Preheat the bbq at maximum intensity then reduce at medium intensity. Oil the grills, drain pork and place on the heat. Cook for 3 minutes and give a 45 degrees rotation. Continue cooking for 3 minutes and flip. Repeat process : cooking 3 minutes, rotation 45 degrees and cook another 3 minutes.
Close one side of the bbq and move the pork on that side. Continue cooking for 4-5 minutes. Verify doneness and continue, if necessary, until an internal temperature of 145°F. Remove from heat, place in a plate and cover with aluminium foil. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with a ton of the salsa and enjoy!

Our sommeliers suggest

Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough

South Island, New Zealand

Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc is a fruity, lively white from New Zealand with the grassy side and the citrus that sauvignon blanc often brings. It echoes the cilantro and lime in the salsa, and its acidity answers the crunch of the apple. With pork cooked in honey and apple beer, it stays light and leaves room for the food. Perfect for a summer supper on the patio! See the product

Gose IPA, Pit Caribou

The salsa is fresh: apple, lime, coriander. A gose starts from the same place, with its coriander seeds and an acidity that follows the lime juice. The chop is mild and a bit fatty, and the salt in the beer lifts it without ever covering the salsa, which stays the lively part of the plate. See the product

*Pairings are suggestions. If you can't find the exact product, substitute for the same type of beer or varietal blend from the same region. Feel free to ask a consultant for help!
