BBQ Pork Chops with Peach Relish

"The combination of the smoky mesquite spice and fruit-kissed relish creates an out of this world flavor!!" Plus, the aroma........................
(serves 6)

2 cups diced ripe, peeled peaches
1 cup charred* corn (you can buy bags of this frozen at Trader Joe's and Safeway*)
1/2 cup diced red onion
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh basil
1 lemon, zested and juiced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
A pinch of cayenne pepper
6 (6 oz.) bone-in pork chops
3 T. mesquite seasoning rub
EVOO

In a bowl, combine peaches, corn, onion, basil, 2 T. lemon juice and 1/2 t. lemon zest. Season to taste with cayenne, S&P. Set aside. Heat grill to med.-high for indirect cooking. Season pork chops with rub; drizzle with oil. Grill chops over direct heat 1&1/2 min. per side. Move chops in indirect side of grill. Cover and gill 10 mins. or until 145 internal temp. on an insta-read thermometer. Let sit 3 mins. before serving with peach relish.

Tip: The Best Way to SKIN A PEACH - Cut a small X in the bottom of each peach, then carefully drop the fruit into a pan of boiling water. Wait 30 secs., then transfer to a bowl of ice water with a slotted spoon. The X loosens the skin so it will slip off easily with a small paring knife.
