Ingredients
  

  • 6 oz. Amber Ale
  • 1 jalapeno finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 tsp cumin
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 lime zested & juiced
  • 4 bone in pork chops or other

Instructions
 

  • Add all of the ingredients into a mixing bowl and whisk until well combined.
  • Place the pork chops into a shallow pan or zip-lock bag and pour the marinade over the pork chops. If you use dish, flip the pork chops after adding the liquid so everything is covered.
  • Then refrigerate until ready to cook. I suggest at least one hour but 4-6 hours is better.
  • Grill, smoke, or sear the pork chops with your method of choice. I suggest smoking them and then searing them. Cook until 145 degrees F.
