Directions

  1. Stir apple cider, honey, cider vinegar, and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to low, stirring often, until the mixture reduces to 2/3 cup, about 20 minutes.

  2. Simmer 1/3 cup whiskey in a separate small saucepan over medium-low heat until steam no longer smells of alcohol, about 10 minutes, stir into the apple cider mixture. Reduce this mixture to 1/2 cup, forming an apple cider glaze and cool.

  3. Stir 3 tablespoons whiskey into apple cider glaze.

  4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  5. Place pork chops into a baking dish, brush with the apple cider glaze.

  6. Bake chops in the preheated oven, basting them often with glaze, until tender, about 1 hour. If desired, bring any remaining glaze to a boil in a saucepan and drizzle over chops to serve.

Recipe Note

I put this glaze on pork chops and stuff them with an apple cranberry stuffing. You can double it and make it a ham glaze also.
