This recipe is simply mouthwatering. When the flavor of the grilled peaches is combined with sharp mustard, creamy brie and unctuous pork chops it creates a symphony of delight.

Ingredients
- 4 Pork Chops Thick Cut
- 8 Slices Brie Cheese
- 1 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
- ½ Teaspoon Black Pepper
- 3 Peaches
- 1 Teaspoon Olive Oil
- 2 Tablespoons Dijon Mustard
Instructions
- Season the pork chops with the salt and pepper as far in advance of cooking (up to 1 day) as possible. Keep refrigerated until 1 hour before cooking. Remove from the fridge and allow to come to room temp.
- Heat the grill. We are going to want direct, high heat.
- While the grill is heating, split the peaches in half and remove the pit.
- Coat the cut side of the peaches with the olive oil. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Grill the peaches, cut side down, for 10 minutes or until cooked through. (Alternatively, follow the directions for the Peach Compote found in the recipe notes).
- Remove the peaches from the grill and allow to cool. Dice when cool enough to handle. Cover and set aside.
- Clean any peach residue from the grill. Place the chops on the grill.
- Cook the chops for 2 minutes, then rotate 90 degrees.
- After the chops have cooked for about 4 minutes, flip and repeat the previous process. Add the sliced brie to the chops while they finish cooking.
- Remove the hot chops from the grill. Smother with the peaches and serve with a side of Dijon mustard.
Notes
You can make this recipe either with or without the Peach Compote. If you make the peach compote, then please don't grill another 3 peaches for this recipe (you'll have way too many peaches!). The compote is so simple and delightful that you should give it a try. It's low carb, refined sugar free and really packs a flavor punch.
As you can see from the pictures, I made the recipe both ways: with the compote and also with just the peaches. They are both really good and have similar flavors.
The cook times in this recipe are based on a bone-in, 1" thick pork chop. They are also based on my grill, which gets pretty hot. You will want to cook your pork to a minimum internal temperature of 145F.
