I don’t remember where I found this recipe but it is brilliant. Small Boy says he has no interest in pork unless it is Pork Chops with Spice Paste, but then he asked if there was any bacon at breakfast today so don’t believe everything he says.

The recipe makes enough paste for 4 pork chops but I usually make a quadruple batch, slather up extra pork chops and then freeze them. I LOVE my Foodsaver freezer bag sucker thing. No more ruined frozen food.

Spice Paste for Grilled Pork Chops

4 cloves minced garlic
3 Tbsp veg oil
2 Tbsp light brown sugar
2 Tbsp coarse salt
2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp ground pepper
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

Mix paste together, coat pork chops and refrigerate 1 to 3 hours. Grill.

Note: August 10, 2014 I tried making this in a magic bullet. The paste comes out way to runny and I don’t recommend it.
