A delightful recipe for grilled pork chops with a sweet and savory glaze, perfect for any occasion.
Trim any excess fat from the pork chops and prick them with a fork on both sides.
Pricking the chops allows the marinade to penetrate better, enhancing the flavor.
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, ginger, and garlic.
Use freshly grated ginger for a more vibrant flavor.
Place the pork chops in a shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over them, reserving the other half.
Ensure the chops are evenly coated for consistent flavor.
Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, turning the chops occasionally.
Marinating overnight will yield even more flavorful results.
Prepare the grill and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Preheating the grill ensures even cooking.
In a small saucepan, combine the honey, brown sugar, and sesame oil. Heat on low until the sugar dissolves, then remove from heat.
Stir constantly to avoid burning the sugar.
Remove the pork chops from the marinade and discard the used marinade.
Pat the chops dry to ensure a good sear on the grill.
Grill the pork chops over direct heat until lightly charred on one side, then flip and char the other side.
Keep an eye on the chops to prevent overcooking.
Move the chops to indirect heat, brush with the honey glaze, and cover the grill.
Basting multiple times enhances the flavor and creates a glossy finish.
Check the doneness of the pork chops by cutting near the bone; the meat should be pale pink to browned with no blood.
Use a meat thermometer for precise cooking; the internal temperature should reach 145°F.
Serve the grilled pork chops hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Let the chops rest for a few minutes before serving to retain their juices.
