Southern Sweet Grilled Pork Chops Recipes

SWEET HOT PEPPER GLAZED GRILLED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat; lightly oil the grill grates.
• Combine the jelly, vinegar and thyme in a small saucepot. Warm over low heat, stirring, until the jelly is melted; set half aside for serving.
• Season the pork chops on both sides with the coriander and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Grill the pork chops until charred with strong grill marks, about 6 minutes. Flip and continue to grill until just slightly pink near the bone, 4 to 5 minutes, brushing generously with the remaining sauce several times.
• Transfer the pork chops to a cutting board to rest for about 5 minutes. Serve with the reserved glaze and potatoes and/or corn on the cob.

• Put pork chops on grill and cook, occasionally turning and basting with balsamic mixture, until browned and cooked through, 12-14 minutes. Transfer to a platter and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

GRILLED SWEET AND TANGY PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
• Season the pork chops lightly on both sides with the Seasoning Salt. Remember, we aren't rubbing the chops.
• Grill the chops for 5 to 7 minutes per side. Brush them with the Sweet and Tangy Glaze the last 5 minutes of grilling. Internal temperature should register 145 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Remove the chops from the grill to a serving platter and allow them to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
• Mix the salt, onion powder, black pepper, garlic powder, celery seed, cayenne, and smoked paprika in a small bowl. Reserve a small amount for another use.
• You can store the remaining Seasoning Salt in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
• In a small bowl, mix together the apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire, and hot sauce. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and refrigerate if not using immediately.

• When grill is heated, place pork chops on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium coals. Cook 10 to 15 minutes or until no longer pink in center, turning once or twice and brushing with glaze during last 5 minutes of cooking time.
• Bring any remaining glaze to a boil. Serve warm glaze with pork chops.
