Servings: persons

1/4 cup allspice berries
1-inch cinnamon stick
1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 Scotch bonnet chile, stemmed, halved, and seeded
1/2 medium red onion, diced
1/2 cup finely chopped scallions (white and green parts)
3 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
3 tablespoons peeled and minced ginger
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1/4 cup dark rum
6 loin pork chops, about 1 1/2 inches thick
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 1/2 cups Golden Pineapple Chutney

1
Toast the allspice berries in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant.
2
Finely grind them with the cinnamon stick in a spice mill.
3
Transfer to a food processor.
4
Add all of the remaining marinade ingredients to the processor and blend until smooth.
5
Season the pork chops with salt and pepper, then rub them all over with the marinade.
6
Place on a plate, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or, preferably, overnight.
7
Prepare a medium-hot fire in a grill.
8
Remove the pork from the marinade, place on the grill, and grill, turning once, for about 7 minutes on each side; the internal temperature of the chop should be 140 degrees for medium, 150 degrees for well-done.

The thinner the chops, the less cooking time required.

Serve with the chutney.
