2 Grill Prep
Fuel: We recommend Kingsford® Original Charcoal Briquets
Method: Direct-Heat Grilling
Temp: 450°F (High Heat)
Carefully hold your hand about 5” to 6” above the grate, and refer to the temperature settings below:
• High Heat (450° to 550°F):
2 to 4 seconds
• Medium Heat (350° to 450°F):
5 to 6 seconds
• Low Heat (250° to 350°F):
8 to 10 seconds
Make sure your clothing doesn’t touch the grate, and always move your hand away from the heat before you feel discomfort.
When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.
3 The Cook
When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.
Place your pork chops onto the grate. Cook for 2–3 minutes, then flip your pork chops over and brush with maple syrup. Cook for another 2–3 minutes until chops are charred at the edges and cooked through.
Flip one more time, brush the other side of your pork chops with maple syrup and cook for 1 minute more. When your pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145ºF, remove it from the grill and allow it to rest for 3 minutes before serving hot.
