HOW TO ROAST GARLIC:

Step 1: Slice the top off of the head of garlic. Place on a double layer of aluminum foil. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Gently bring the aluminum foil together like a tent and place in the oven for about 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool.

Step 2: Squeeze the garlic into a bowl and whisk together with maple syrup and softened butter. Place in a small bowl and refrigerate until needed.

HOW TO MAKE SOUR CREAM MASHED POTATOES:

Step 1: Peel the potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Place in a pot of cold water and sprinkle with salt. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 12 minutes. Drain.

Step 2: Smash the potatoes with a potato masher or electric hand mixer. Add the butter, sour cream, salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese and chopped chives. Cover and set aside.

HOW TO MAKE MAPLE ROASTED GARLIC BUTTER:

Salty and sweet with a kick of spice with freshly ground black pepper. Yum- paired perfectly with heirloom tomatoes, still warm from the summer sun, sprinkled with salt and black pepper. I walked out into our vegetable garden and harvested some green beans to go along with these Grilled Pork Chops. Delicious, home cooked dinner in about 35 minutes. I topped these wonderfully moist pork chops with a maple and roasted garlic whipped butter. This adds even more depth to an already easy grilled pork chop recipe.
