Finally, I got to cook my Summertime entry! It's been a long, eventful week for me but I was determined to cook this funky idea I had before going to St. Louis tomorrow. It turned out to be pretty darn tasty considering all the other things we were trying to do to prep for our trip tomorrow. So, summertime always makes me think of fresh fruit and I just love pineapple! And what goes better with pineapple than pork? I decided I wanted to make a spicy pineapple chutney/salsa. I used fresh pineapple chunks, diced red jalapenos (that I put in white vinegar a while back), fresh garlic, Allspice, fresh grated ginger, cayenne, salt, diced green onions and a little Simply Marvelous Simplly Seductive - which I also used on the pork loin chops Guerry sliced up. Smoked gouda cheese was placed on the chops first, then the chutney before rolling up and skewering, also used cooking twine on the ends to keep all the good stuff from oozing out.
Oops, almost forgot my video, hope this works!

Pounding the chops
Generously seasoned with Sweet Seduction!
Ready to roll!
Rolled up and skewered
And as for the extra pineapple, sprinkled with Sweet Seduction and grilled
Also wanted to try bok choy for the first time, EVOO, salt and pepper and onto the grill it went too!
But only after the spicy pineapple chutney pork rolls were done
Searing
Plated
And I think I like this for the TD pic. This was absolutely wonderful and different - I couldn't believe how deguerre wolfed these down! A flavor explosion - and good for you too, can't beat that!
Thanks for looking - gonna go sleep now, lots to do tomorrow!:becky:
