Grilled Maple Chipotle Pork Chops
Grilled Maple Chipotle Pork Chops is If you have salt, pork loin chops, gouda grits, and a few other ingredients on hand, you can make it. To use up the pepper you could follow this main course with the Easy Peppermint Dessert as a dessert. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes approximately 28 minutes.

Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Riesling
Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Riesling are my top picks for Pork Chops. Chardonnay suits simple chops or chops in a butter or cream sauce, dry riesling complements sweet additions like honey mustard or apples, and pinot noir is a safe bet for pork dishes in general. One wine you could try is Xavier Monnot Bourgogne Les Grandes Coutures Chardonnay. It has 4.2 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 30 dollars.

Xavier Monnot Bourgogne Les Grandes Coutures Chardonnay
Chardonnay Les Grandes Coutures is from three plots bordering Meursault with vine ages from 15 to 51 years. Soils are predominantly argile (clay), bringing weight and texture to this Bourgogne Blanc.The 2015 vintage shows aromas of ripe melon, hazelnut, and lemon custard, and tend to be broader and more textural than wines from neighboring villages. Aging small French oak barrels lends notes of toast and vanilla.White Burgundy, with its richness, texture, and toasted flavors pairs well with light fish and shellfish and can counterbalance cream-based sauces. Oak-aged Chardonnay from warmer climates lends itself well to grilled fish, starches, butter, and toasted nuts.
