Tomahawk Pork Chops With Tomatillo Green Tomato Chowchow Recipes

Steps:

• For the green tomato chowchow relish: Combine the vinegar, sugar, salt, celery seeds and mustard seeds in a small saucepan, bring to a boil and cook until the sugar is dissolved. Remove and let the mixture cool completely.
• Combine the tomatoes, red and yellow bell peppers, jalapenos and onions in a medium bowl. Add the cooled vinegar mixture, olive oil and black pepper and mix until combined. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours before serving.
• For the BBQ remoulade: Whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, barbecue sauce, cornichons and green onions in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
• Heat the grill to high for direct grilling. Grill the sausages until golden brown and charred on all sides and just cooked through, about 10 minutes.
• To serve, slice the sausages and arrange on a platter. Serve with bowls of the BBQ remoulade and chowchow relish, with grilled bread on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Toss the tomatillos and tomatoes with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil on a baking sheet and push to one side. Put the poblanos and jalapenos on the other side of the baking sheet. Broil, turning the vegetables occasionally, until charred, about 10 minutes. Transfer the tomatillos and tomatoes to a cutting board and let cool. Put the peppers in a bowl and cover with a plate; set aside 10 minutes. Pull the skins off the tomatoes, then core and chop them along with the tomatillos. Peel, seed and chop the peppers; set all the vegetables aside.
• Toss the pork with the chili powder, cumin, 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large Dutch oven or pot over medium heat. Working in batches, add the pork to the pot and cook, turning, until browned, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, the onion and garlic to the pot; cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle in the cornmeal and cook, stirring, until lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Add the broiled tomatillos, tomatoes and peppers. Stir to combine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the broth and pork and any collected juices, then bring to a simmer.
• Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the pork is tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Uncover, season generously with salt and continue simmering, stirring occasionally, until the liquid reduces slightly, about 30 more minutes. Remove from the heat and let stand about 10 minutes; spoon off any excess fat from the top. Season the chili with salt and pepper and serve with toppings.

Steps:

• Mix together the bell peppers, cabbage, onions, tomatoes, jalapeno and salt in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight. Drain the liquid from the mixture.
• In a large pot over medium-high heat, toast the mustard seeds and celery seeds until they begin to pop, about 3 minutes. Add the sugar, vinegar and 1 cup water, and heat until the sugar is dissolved. Add the vegetable mixture and the crushed red pepper, mustard powder, turmeric, ginger and cinnamon, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thick, about 1 hour.
• Allow to cool. Serve over beans and cornbread or as a relish for pulled pork or hot dogs.
