Barbecue Pork Chops

Barbecue pork chops are a great way to prepare and grill a stack of pork chops for friends.

Pork Chops
Salt
Ground Pepper
Barbecue Sauce

Salt and pepper pork chops on both sides. You can either place in refrigerator until grill is ready or place then on the grill at this time. The important part is that you sprinkle or rub salt and pepper into your chops. This aids not only in the flavor of your pork chops but it aids in retaining natural moisture so they are juicy an succulent.

Grill until cooked through and lightly browned by the grill. Depending on the thickness of your pork cope you may need more or less time. Use a meat thermometer.

Now it is time for the barbecue sauce. We wait until the pork chops are cooked to reduce the chances od burning the sugars in the barbecue sauce. Brush on barbecue sauce and turn chicken to create a beautiful glaze. Wait a couple of minutes before serving. Waiting allows the liquids in the pork chop to redistribute so they will be equally as excellent for every bite.

Baked Pork Chops with Apples

There are many ways to bake pork chops but a natural combination is with apples. We use thick pork chops, about 1 1/2 inches thick.
