BOURBON-MUSTARD GLAZED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven 400.
• Place large oven skillet over medium high heat with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season the chops and sear until deep golden brown.
• When chops are seared, add 1 tablespoon olive oil along with the mustard, stock, honey and butter. When liquids come up to a bubble, pour bourbon into the skillet, remove from heat and carefully flame with a lighter. Or just continue boiling the sauce and the alcohol will cook away.
• Season the sauce with salt and pepper, and continue cooking until it starts to thicken, 2-3 minutes. Flip the chops over and transfer the entire pan to the oven to finish cooking, about 5 minutes.

MAPLE-MUSTARD PULLED PORK

Steps:

• Mix the sea salt and 200g of the sugar in a large food bag, add the pork and coat it well. (If you don't have a bag, rub over the pork in a dish and cover with cling film.) Leave in the fridge overnight.
• The next day, remove the pork and wipe down the meat with kitchen paper. Heat oven to 140C/120C fan/gas 1. Mix the remaining sugar, the maple syrup, mustards and some ground pepper. Rub half the mixture over the pork and sit it on a rack in a roasting tin. Roast for 6 hrs.
• Spoon the remaining maple mixture over the pork and roast for 1 hr more.
• Rest the meat for 30 mins on a plate loosely covered with foil. To serve, tear the pork into big fat chunks and, after skimming the surface, spoon over any juices from the tin.
