PREPARE THE PORK CHOPS
Pre-heat oven to 325°F.
Generously season the chops with salt and pepper and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before grilling.

Stir in butter and thyme.
Heat your grill to medium-high heat.
One grill is good and hot, place chops on the grates and brush on some of the balsamic reduction.
Grill for about 6 to 8 minutes and then turn, basting again and cooking for another 6 to 8 minutes.
Place grilled chops on a baking sheet and bake until cooked through to 145°F, about 15 to 20 minutes.

MAKE THE ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS AND CARROTS
Pre-heat oven to 325°F (if haven't already done so for the pork chops)
Lightly oil a baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, olive oil, and maple syrup Set aside.
Place Brussels sprouts and carrots on the prepared baking sheets and pour the balsamic mixture over it, topping with the chopped thyme, garlic and healthy pinches of salt and pepper.
Gently stir to coat.
Place in oven a bake until brown and tender, about 25 minutes.
