Ginger Ale Galena Chops

[Jim Lampe]

soaked two nice thick pork rib chops in 12oz of ginger ale for a few hours

then seasoned them with Penzey's Galena Street rub

grilled direct a few minutes...

...then indirect until they reached a proper internal temp
served then with thick baked potato slices and steamed carrots with broccoli.

and a cold brew.

decent stuff.
thanks for your time

[Rich Dahl]

[Jim Lampe]

Thanks guys

Had you done the ginger ale marinade before?

Yes!

Could you taste the ginger ale in the chops?

No.
The carbonated ginger ale (I think) acts as a tenderizer... a weird brine, kinda.
it seems to work.

Don't tell anyone, but we use ginger ale in our pork injections. Oops! Gave away one of our comp secrets.

Excellent looking chops and sides Jim!

 

[John Solak]

Great looking chops, never tried marinating anything in soda before.

 

[Gary H. NJ]

Cool beans Jim. Good looking chops. I think it's only in the BBQ world where soda pop becomes a viable ingredient for marinade or sauce. I like it.
