It’s one of those days when it seems like all you’ve done is run and got nothing done. You also don’t want another fast food meal so this is one of my go to dinners when I have a day like that. It can be prepared in about 30 minutes and is summer on a plate! I buy the 100% Fresh All Natural Pork Chops that I can get at my local Walmart® store that has been proudly raised here in the USA. Did you know that Walmart® stands behind the quality of their meat with a 100% freshness guarantee? I love pairing it with fresh peaches which are in season right now along with pineapple which I also can get at my Walmart® store. I grill them for about 10 minutes to bring out even more sweetness before chopping them up and adding honey, balsamic vinegar and fresh herbs. When buying peaches for this you don’t want them to be super ripe. They need to be a little firm or they will break up while grilling. I’d used fresh pineapple that I had cut with a pineapple corer so my pieces were in quarters. You could even use canned slices. If you’d like a little heat throw a jalapeno pepper on the grill with the fruits and let cook until tender. Even though this dish is so easy to prepare it is perfect for entertaining also. The pork chops are brushed with a mixture of honey and balsamic vinegar. I also used a little of it on the fruit after it was grilled. Look at these beautiful pork chops, they are moist and tender every time I cook them and Walmart® has partnered with national brands to ensure their products are all natural and hand selected for quality. You’ll see the Hand Selected Black Label in the corner of the package when you go looking for these pork chops. These pork chops could also be made in a saute pan on the stove in the same amount of time. I always cook them longer on the first side to get nice browning and then flip to finish quickly. I have to tell you that because I was only cooking for 2 that we had a couple of these left over. I’d intended to cut them into strips for a salad the next day when at about 11 that night we had a strong craving for another taste of them. Yep, we ate them right out of the refrigerator cold! They were finger lickin’ good.
