Ingredients for Honey Garlic Pork Chops:

• Pork Chops ~ We used thick cut boneless pork chops
• Olive Oil ~ A light coating helps create a nice sear on the pork.
• Kosher Salt ~ Seasons the pork.
• Coarse Ground Pepper ~ Adds a bit of peppery heat.
• Butter ~ Salted butter for sautéing garlic.
• Garlic ~ Fresh minced garlic.
• Honey ~ Local honey if you can get it works great.
• Brown Sugar ~ Sweetens and thickens the sauce.
• Apple Cider Vinegar ~ Adds tangy flavor and balances out the sweetness.
• Smoked Paprika ~ Adds smokiness, flavor and color to the sauce.
• Ground Chili Flakes ~ Or cayenne for a spicy kick.

How to Grill Honey Garlic Pork Chops:

Make the Sauce:

• Sauté minced garlic in butter over low heat for about 3 minutes, stirring often. 
• Add honey, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, salt and ground chili flakes. Continue to cook for 5 minutes, stirring often. Divide the sauce in half, use half for grilling and the other half for serving.

For the Pork Chops:

• Pat pork chops dry with paper towels. 
• Drizzle with olive oil, spreading over both sides.
• Season with kosher salt and coarse pepper. 
• Prepare a grill fire to 350° using hickory or pecan for smoke flavor.
• Cook pork chops over indirect fire with the grill closed 5 minutes.
• Brush with honey garlic sauce and flip the pork chops. Brush the other sides with sauce and continue to cook with the grill closed another 7- 10 minutes, until internal temperature reaches 145° using a digital meat thermometer.
• Remove pork chops to a serving platter and rest 5 minutes before serving. 
• Reheat remaining sauce if needed and serve over pork chops. 

• Serve Honey Garlic Pork Chops with rice pilaf and grilled garlic bread for a complete meal. 

How to Store and Reheat:

• Store leftover pork chops wrapped in plastic wrap or aluminum foil in the refrigerator up to 4 days.
