What To Serve with Marinated Grilled Pork Chops?

• Grilled veggies
• Side salad like: Panzanella Salad, Crunchy Celery Apple Salad, Deconstructed Waldorf Salad

Kitchen Notes and Tips

• When grilling pork chops, use medium direct heat so that the inside of the pork chop cooks evenly with the outside resulting in a perfectly cooked tender, juicy pork chop. 
• Pork chops should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145˚F at the thickest point. An instant read meat thermometer is perfect to verify the correct temperature. At this temperature, your pork chop may be slightly pink, but your juices should run clear.
• For your herb mixture, adjust the quantities of the herbs and substitute whatever flavors you enjoy and have on hand. 
• For a different experience in future meals, you can chop extra herbs and mix into softened butter for a great flavor enhancer on all sorts of meats and veggies.

How To Make Marinated Grilled Pork Chops

Step #1. Combine kosher salt, basil, rosemary, thyme, garlic, carbon salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Do an herb rub all over the thick pork chops until thoroughly covered on all sides.

Step #2.  Clean grill grates prior to starting. Lightly oil grates. Preheat the grill to medium heat. Once the grill is heated, add pork chops and cook covered, over direct heat for 6 – 8 minutes, turning once. Temperature should be 145˚F at the thickest portion. If your pork chops are thicker or thinner chops (thinner than 1”), adjust the cooking time accordingly. 

Step #3.  Remove pork chops from heat, cover and let rest for 3 – 5 minutes before serving. 

Step #4. Place pork chops on a serving plate and pair with freshly grilled summer veggies or a side salad. Enjoy!
