Grilled Pork Chops

Marinate the pork. Put the pork chops into a large ziplock bag or large bowl and then add all the remaining ingredients. Now, squeeze the chops in the bag so that the marinade moves around in the bag to mix everything together. You want to fully coat the pork. Then place the bag with the pork chops in the fridge to marinate for at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.

Preheat your grill. First, oil the grates of your grill, and then heat it to medium-high so that it gets nice and hot.

Grill the pork chops. Remove the pork from the ziplock bag and discard the excess marinade. Now, place the chops on the hot grill and cook on each side for 6 to 8 minutes. The cooking time will depend on the size of the chops you selected. Also note, when you go to flip the pork it should not be sticking. If it is sticking that means that the chops need to cook for another 1 to 2 minutes so that the char marks can form, which indicates that the pork has cooked long enough on that side.

Check the internal temperature. When you think the chops are cooked, use an instant-read digital meat thermometer to check the temperature of the pork, which needs to be at least 145°F (63°C) when inserted into the center of the pork chops. If they haven’t reached 145°F allow the pork to cook for another 1 to 2 minutes and then check the temperature again.

Rest and serve. Once the pork chops are fully cooked, transfer them to a plate, cover them with foil. Allow the chops to rest for 5 minutes before serving. This helps them to stay nice and juicy.
