Farm Girl Tips
This recipe calls for 1 inch thick pork chops. If you're using thicker chops, increase the cooking time. Again, a meat thermometer will help you know when they're done without having to cut into the pork.
- Bone-in chops help retain moisture and add flavor.
- The brown sugar in the rub creates a flavorful crust on the grill.
- Letting the meat rest keeps the juices in the pork.
