I haven't had a chance to post much lately; work's been interfering with the simple pleasures in life. I finally had some time to myself yesterday, and my wife said that she bought some nice thick pork chops. That was all I needed to hear! I wanted to do something a bit different, so I did. I know it's not that original, but for us, it was differrent.....breaded pork chops!

The chops....

The whole set up. First dredged in flour seasoned with garlic powder, dipped in an egg wash, and coated with panko.

Ready for the grill. Indirect setup, 300 degrees dome, no smoke except from the lump.

Off the grill at 145 internal, open up the vents to grill some asparagus, a family favorite. Misted with some evoo and drizzled with balsamic.

Plated.

This was a very tasty meal, kid friendly, and a must do again in the future. Hope you like it!

    I usually stick with the pork tenderloins, but the last shot of that chop looks very tempting. I may have to keep an eye out for some nice thick chops.

    Very nice, I can't cook a decent Pork chop on any grill, even the egg, we had some great ones last night, tender and moist, completely different from any that I can cook, that he First Mate cooked on the stove top.

    I have given up on grilled chops :angry:

    Cpt'n Cook,

    First you gotta get them thick, then use an internal temp probe and pull at 137-140*. Any more done and you get closer to shoe leather.

    Cpt'n Cook,

    These weren't grilled...more like roasted indirect. Like Misippi Egger said, cook to temp. For boneless, I pull at 140; these were bone in, so I pulled at 145. My wife gets a little scared as she approaches the meat near the bone :blush: , it tends to be a bit more rare.
