We've found The Ultimate Pork Chops. SO tender and juicy! TONS of great flavor! Seriously delicious!! One of the best pork chops we've ever grilled.
These Ultimate Pork Chops take a little planning. You need to brine the pork chops overnight before grilling. The brine is a mixture of water, salt and sugar. Brining the pork chops will make them super tender and juicy. We were able to cut these pork chops with our butter knives!!
After brining the pork chops, just give them a rub with the spice mixture and grill. Pork chops are done when they reach an internal temperature of 145ºF. Just use a meat thermometer to check the chops for doneness.
We used bone-in pork chops because that is what we prefer. Feel free to use some thick boneless pork chops if you aren't a fan of bone-in chops.
