This will result in perfectly grilled, tender, and delicious pork chops every time. To ensure optimal doneness, check that the internal temperature of the chops reaches 140☏ (60☌) before removing them from the grill. The goal is to achieve a well-seared exterior while maintaining a juicy interior. Next, flip the pork chops and sear the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes. Continue grilling for another 2-3 minutes. Then, using tongs, rotate the chops a quarter turn to create attractive crosshatch grill marks. Place the pork chops onto the preheated grill and allow them to cook undisturbed for 5-7 minutes, or until they release easily from the grill with minimal effort. To achieve beautifully grilled pork chops, follow these simple steps. You’re looking for a medium-high heat of about 400°(F). Let that grilling surface get good and hot. Whether using gas or charcoal, make sure the grate is cleaned of any debris and give it a good spray with cooking spray or wipe it down with paper towels dipped in some vegetable oil. Start with a clean, well-oiled (seasoned) grill. However, avoid leaving the pork chops out for longer than 30-45 minutes to prevent the risk of bacterial growth and spoilage.

Cook them for about two minutes with the lid closed. This is because room temperature meat cooks more evenly, releases moisture more easily for better searing, and retains its natural juices better than cold meat. Id get the grill fired up on medium high heat and place the chops on the grate.

Allowing pork chops to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before grilling promotes even cooking, faster cooking times, better searing and browning, and improved tenderness and juiciness.
