GRILLED PORK CHOPS WITH ADOBO PASTE
Steps:
- Bring the chile soaking water to a boil: Bring 3 to 4 cups of water to a boil for soaking the chiles.
- Preheat your grill: For a gas grill: Light the entire grill on high heat, about 400°F at least 20 minutes before you plan to begin grilling, then reduce the temperature of one side to low. This way you can sear on the high heat side and finish cooking on the lower heat side.
- Grill the pork chops: When the grill is hot enough, place your pork chops over the high heat side of the grill. Grill and sear them for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until they get nice grill marks. After searing, move your chops to the cooler side of your grill. Brush with additional adobo paste. Close the lid and cook 6 minutes longer, flipping halfway through cooking. You can test for doneness using an instant read thermometer. Your pork chops should be around 145°F for grilled pork chops .

EASY GRILLED PORK CHOPS
Steps:
- Begin by making the marinade. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, oil, vinegar, cumin and red pepper flakes. Easy, right?
- Sprinkle both sides of the pork chops with salt and pepper and place in a re-sealable plastic bag with the marinade. Let rest on the counter for 1 hour. That's easy.
- Heat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Remove the pork chops from the bag and lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place on the grill and cook until the pork chop releases from the grill, about 4 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side for another 3 minutes. If using a grill pan, be sure to do in batches so you don't steam the chops. And don't worry if you have neither; you can do this in a pan. See, easy!

Another great Southwest recipe. The level of spiciness is your option. I like a lot of cayenne, but you can leave it out and still get great results.

Tips:
- Choose the right pork chops: Look for pork chops that are at least 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will help ensure that they stay juicy and flavorful during grilling.
- Brine the pork chops: Brining the pork chops in a mixture of water, salt, and sugar helps to tenderize them and infuse them with flavor. You can brine the pork chops for as little as 30 minutes or up to overnight.
- Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what will give the pork chops their unique flavor. There are many different marinade recipes to choose from, so experiment until you find one that you like. Some popular ingredients for pork chop marinades include olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices.
- Grill the pork chops over medium-high heat: This will help to sear the outside of the pork chops and lock in the juices. Cook the pork chops for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the pork chops rest before serving: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful pork chop.
Conclusion:
Adobe grilled pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. By following these tips, you can ensure that your pork chops are juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection.
