A note about grilling pork: pork chops need to be cooked through, but not over cooked. This is a little trick because you want to pull pork chops off the grill about a minute before they are done.
The chop will continue to cook for a few minutes after you remove it from the grill if you let it sit in a protected place for about 5 minutes. As with steaks you learn with experience. Pay close attention to the color, smell, texture and density of the perfect chop, or you can go buy a meat thermometer. It's really up to you. You want to remove a pork chop from the grill when the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F.
Instead of table salt, give your chops a bit of extra flavor with our fantastic selection of smoked salts.
