Tonight's dinner was:

Grilled pork chops with a Worsterchire & brown sugar glaze, rice pilaf with shallots in chicken stock, and grilled corn cut from the cob and tossed with sautee'd shallots.

The pilaf was simple: two diced shallots, sautee'd in medium-high heat until soft in four tablespoons of butter, added 1 cup of rice and stirred until glossy, then added 1 3/4 cups of stock. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.

The pork chops cooked very fast, even on low heat in the gas grill. The corn was warmed, and then scorched on the grill. While this was happening I quickly sliced two shallots and tossed them into a pot with three tablespoons of butter on medium heat.

I moved the pork chops to the "keep hot" tier of the grill and slathered them in a mix of 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce and 2 tbsp. brown sugar. I took the corn inside, cut it free of the cob, and tossed it in with the other pot of shallots, stirred once, put in a healthy pinch of salt, and all was done.

And now I have to go marinate a chicken for tomorrow's dinner.
