Title: Infuser Fun!
Post by: muebe on September 23, 2012, 09:41:05 PM

Decided to give my new Char-Broil Infuser another go.

First I pulled out a couple of center-loin cut pork chops that were seasoned with Penzey's BBQ 3000 before vac sealing and freezing...

Then I loaded the bottom of the infuser with some Maple pellets and some of the wood chips that came with the Infuser. I assume they are Hickory...

Hit the bottom grate with a spray of canola oil and then installed...

I put the infuser on my RED side burner for 5 minutes on high until it started smoking...

Now it was time to drop the chops. I heard a sizzle when they hit the grill of the Infuser!

I flipped them every 5 minutes. After 3 flips they read 140F IT with the world's fastest Thermapen. Here is how they looked...

I then killed the heat on the burner and topped them with Parmesan Cheese and Italian seasoning. Put the Infuser lid back on and waited a few minutes for the cheese to melt a bit...

Wifey is not home tonight so looks like bothe chops are for me! Plated with the Scotch Egg dipping sauce I made for another cook...

These were seriously good! The smokey flavor was simply outstanding! And so fast and simply done on a BBQ grill side burner! Bravo Char-Broil!!!!

Looks like a nice chop, Would you buy that infuser again if someone stole it?
