Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cabbage

    In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and crumble it. In the remaining bacon grease, add the chopped cabbage, salt, and pepper. Cook until the cabbage is tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the crumbled bacon.

  2. 2

    Make the Creamed Corn

    In a saucepan, combine the sweet corn and heavy cream. Simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the corn is tender and the mixture has thickened slightly, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Cook the Pork Chops

    Season the pork chops with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and sear on both sides until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove from heat.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Whiskey Thyme Honey Glaze

    In a small bowl, whisk together the whiskey, honey, and fresh thyme. Drizzle over the cooked pork chops before serving.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Plate the pork chops alongside generous servings of creamed corn and bacon braised cabbage. Drizzle the whiskey thyme honey glaze over the pork chops.
