Oh, let me tell you ’bout them apple grilled pork chops. You ever try ’em? They real tasty, I swear. First thing you gotta do is get yourself some good pork chops, not them thin ones, but the thick cut, like two inches or so. Them thick ones hold up better on the grill, and they get all juicy.
Now, you gotta heat up that grill real nice. Aim for medium-high, about 400 degrees or so. Once it’s hot enough, toss them chops on there. You wanna cook ’em about 12 to 16 minutes on each side. Don’t be forgettin’ to flip ’em! And if you got a meat thermometer, now’s the time to use it. You want the inside to hit around 145 degrees for that nice medium-rare. If you like ’em more done, let it go up to 160 degrees.
But here’s the secret, folks. While them chops are sizzlin’ away, you gotta get those apples ready. Grab some good, sweet apples—maybe Granny Smith or Honeycrisp. Slice ’em up real nice. You can even toss ’em on the grill for a few minutes. It makes ’em all caramelized and sweet, just perfect with that savory pork.
Once them chops are done, plate ’em up with them grilled apples on the side. I tell ya, the flavor just dances on your tongue. The pork’s all meaty and a bit sweet, and the apples bring in that tartness that cuts right through the richness of the pork. They been servin’ pork with apples for ages, and let me tell you, it ain’t just for fancy folks. It’s good eatin’ for everyone.
Now, if you want to make it a little more special, you can whip up some apple sauce to go with it. Ain’t nothin’ better than some homemade apple sauce, just cooked down apples with a little sugar and maybe a pinch of cinnamon. Yum! Just spoon it over your pork chops and you’ll be in heaven.
Folks round here like to have this dish for special occasions, like family gatherings or Sunday dinners. It fills you up, and everyone walks away happy. You can serve it with some mashed potatoes or a nice salad on the side if you feel fancy, but honestly, it’s good enough on its own.
So, there you have it! Apple grilled pork chops, simple as pie. Give it a try next time you fire up that grill. You won’t regret it, I promise you that.
