Tips:
- To ensure the pork chops are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The USDA recommends cooking pork chops to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 155°F (68°C) for medium, and 165°F (74°C) for well-done.
- If you don't have maple syrup, you can substitute honey or brown sugar. However, maple syrup will give the pork chops a more authentic flavor.
- If you don't have smoked gouda, you can use another type of hard cheese, such as cheddar or Parmesan. However, smoked gouda will give the grits a more smoky flavor.
- If you don't have time to make the smoked gouda grits, you can use instant grits instead. Just follow the package directions.
Conclusion:
Grilled maple-chipotle pork chops on smoked gouda grits is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The pork chops are tender and flavorful, and the grits are creamy and cheesy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
