Caribbean Barbecued Pork Chops

Ingredients

  • 8 bone-in pork rib chops, 3/4-inch thick

  • 1/4 cup cumin

  • 1 tsp kosher salt, or sea salt

  • 1 white onion, cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 2 yellow plantains, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 2 large red bell peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 1 pineapple, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces

  • 1 cup honey barbecue sauce

  • 8 wooden skewers

Plantains hold up perfectly to the heat of grilling and give these chops a Caribbean flair.

Directions

  • Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes. Prepare medium-hot grill. Combine cumin and salt and press evenly onto both sides of pork rib chops. Add mix of vegetables and fruit to each skewer.
  • Grill chops and kabobs for 8-10 minutes, until internal temperature on a thermometer reads 160° F and kabobs are turning to brown. Brush with honey barbecue sauce during final 5 minutes of cooking.
