Southern Sweet Grilled Pork Chops Recipes

SOUTHERN SWEET GRILLED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Whisk barbeque sauce, apple butter, brown sugar, black pepper, and garlic together in a microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave until sugar dissolves, about 30 seconds. Stir until sauce is smooth.
• Place pork chops on a plate and pour sauce over chops. Refrigerate for flavors to soak into pork chops, 1 to 2 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Cook pork chops on grill until cooked through, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

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.
