I have 2 beautiful pork chops about 1 1/2" thick. I am thinking about 450 deg. and indirect, but I am new. Will someone please give me some advice?

I would do them about 450F or so couple of minutes per side direct, then drop to 350 with the chops off the grill and cook until the way you want them. Careful not to overcook and dry out.

Harleydog77,
Either way works. If they are that thick direct won't dry them out. Just a tip, if you use your platesetter as a barrier for meat, you may want to wrap it in foil.

Wow! Thanks for the info! I probably shouldn't have read the whole thing while my egg is burning outside though. Great info. I will use it for sure.
