• Rinse and pat dry the pork chops.
• Turn chops onto their side (fat side down) and cut a pouch lengthwise down the chop -- leave about 1/4" from each end be sure to not slice down all the way through the chop to the other side.
• Season all 3 chops inside and out with half of the seasoning salt. Reserve the remaining salt for the stuffing.
• In a small bowl, crumble all the bacon and then combine the cheeses, parsley and the remaining 1/4 tsp of the seasoning salt. Toss well with hands.
• Equally divide the stuffing between the 3 chops by filling the pouches of each with the mixture.

• Grill over medium heat 6-8 minutes on each side depending on the thickness of your chops.
• Be sure to use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature and to ensure that you DO NOT OVER COOK! You should reach at least 145 degrees (the USDA has reduced their recommended internal temperature on pork chops down from 160 degrees due to the potential to overcook when trying to reach 160 degrees).
• **I grilled my almost 2" chops for 5 min on each side and then flipped again and rotated the chop 1/4 turn (to create a crisscross grill pattern) and grilled each side again for about 3 minutes. I removed from the heat when the internal temperature was about 150 degrees and then loosely covered with aluminum foil and let rest for about 3-5 minutes and then be sure to REMOVE the twine or toothpicks before serving.**.

GRILLED STUFFED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• 1. Cut a pocket into your chops, season with a little salt and pepper.
• 2. In a small mixing bowl add your bread cubes, onion, celery, herbs, corn and currants. Mix. Add your eggs and mix well.
• 3. Stuff your chops with the filing mixture. Place 2 tooth picks to hold chops together.
• 4. Place on a foil lined cookie sheet and just lay another sheet of foil on top.
• 5. Place on your grill. Now we have a smoker which has a fire box so we placed our chops on the smoker side and cooked them for about 40 minutes. We removed the foil which was on top of the chops about 10 to 15 minutes before they were done. If you are using a gas grill I would say put it on medium heat but use your own judgment. Cook the chops to about 165° temp (yes they have now found out that it is save to eat pork at this temp.)
