Grilled Pork Chops


Grilled Pork Chops

Here in the Lone Star State we love pork. All kinds of pork. Bacon, ribs, roast and of course chops. Here is a recipe from Lone Star Travelers for Pork Chops Texas Style.

*****Ingredients*****


Rub oil and seasonings on pork chops one hour prior to grilling.
Add charcoal to your barbecue grill and light in preparation for cooking.
Sear each pork chop for 3-4 minutes on each side.
Grill 15-18 minutes or until meat thermometer reaches 170 degrees.
Remove from grill and cover loosely with foil until ready to serve.
