This is a really quick meal that works well for a weeknight when in a rush or as a main course at a large party with many courses. Although it is fancy enough to pretend like it took hours to create.
Grilled Pork Chops with Fresh Blueberry Sauce
- 4 1″ thick pork loin chops
- 1/2 cup cider vinegar
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tsp green pepper
- 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp rosemary
- salt
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1/4 tsp fresh grated nutmeg
In a large pan mix cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and 1/2 cup water. Season pork chops with salt, rosemary, green and cayenne pepper and place in marinade. Flip after 1/2 hour. Start fire in grill and cook over medium heat until done, flipping once about 12 minutes. Meanwhile heat brown sugar and balsamic in a sauce pan until reduced by half. Add blueberries and nutmeg and cook over medium heat until berries burst and sauce thickens, about 10 minutes. Serve pork chops with blueberry sauce on top.
Mmm this looks great 🙂
Yeah. I’d eat that. A lot of that. The other white meat.
the sauce makes it extra attractive!!!
That sauce sounds dynamite.
Ohhhh… sweet with heat. Love this!
I love pork chops.. simple and plain. They are delicious and an easy meal for me. I’ve never had them with blueberry sauce though.. definitely intrigued guys.. Love this
that looks great! thanks for a new idea! i have never seen these two together 🙂
Wow that is one combination I’d have never thought about but looking at the ingredients, it would work so well together !
Pork chops with blueberry sauce. Never would I have thought to combine these ingredients. Now I can’t wait to do so. There’s a “Wow Factor” to your posts that keeps me coming back for more.
Blueberries are in season here so this can be made for dinner soon 🙂
Oh my what a sexy photo – and what a great combination of ingredients. Shame we can´t get blueberries here 😦
I have pork chops and the blueberries we picked last May + other ingredients. I want to cook these tonight.
Nice…it would be good with duck, or venison as well…
Love the photo!
Looks too good to be healthy! I do love fruit, but never considered blueberries and pork. Great idea.
Look fabulous! Pork goes so well with fruit.
Mmm. I was just thinking about pork chops! Looks really good, and simple!
Love the blueberry sauce with pork chops. Such a different way to serve the chops.
What a fabulous sauce! The color is gorgeous, it certainly would look impressive for guests!!
This could become a regular when we are entertaining at the cottage in Maine and have all those sweet wild Maine blueberries available.
Mmm. I was just reading an article in Elle a Table (the Elle cooking magazine) – and by reading I mean, to the extent that I can read French i.e. not fluently – and they had a whole feature on blueberries! With unexpected things like rabbit ragu. This looks fantastic!
I never considered those things together. Looks tasty!
Excellent idea to impress guests! The combination sounds very original and delicious.
I’ve never tried it with blueberry sauce. Mmm, looks good!
My all time favourite !
Looks great! I will definitely try it.
I picked so many blueberries this summer and have yet to use them with any savory dishes–thanks for the idea!
We’re all out of blueberries, but still have some frozen peaches. I love being able to use summer stuff through the year.
The sauce looks great and I agree, rather fancy!
this is one i really can see myself serving, very simple, now all i need is some pork! c
Love the combination of blueberry and balsamic sauce and pairing it up with the savoury chops – delish!
Seems so nice… I have never tasted bluebarry… How it would be I wonder now? Thank you dear Rufus, with my love, nia
I’m 100% sure that this is a good idea and tastes great.
Deceivingly fancy! I love it. Sounds incredible.
I love the alternative to the classic pork chops and apple sauce (remember the Brady Bunch?). The blueberries and balsamic are a wonderful colour to bring out the pain pork chop! Nicely done.
Oh my. Pork chops with blueberry sauce?!?!? I am so intrigued…especially with all the goodies that go into it. Also, nutmeg with blueberries is the best!
Pork is great with sweet and savory flavors, this looks like a wonderful combination.
You know how we feel about our blueberry sauce! I had never thought about using it with pork chops. This is definitely going on our weeknight menu – easy and good?! I’m in!
Delegate this one to ChefDad!
Oh dude, can you still buy fresh blueberries? So unfair 😦 Looks like a good week-night dish… Just needs a big splodge of mashed potato!
Oh this is a Ritchey meal – blueberries are his favorite! The blueberries, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar and nutmeg sound like a wonderful flavor combination – in addition to the marinade! Bravo!
My tastebuds are now standing at attention! Fabulous combination of flavours!
