When I was perusing my local grocery store's meat section looking for deals, I came across some nice-looking bone-in pork chops that were at a decent price. I haven't made pork chops in a long time, so I decided to grab them and head back home to see what I could make out of them. Thankfully I remembered this family favorite recipe that my mom has been making for years. I've loved this recipe for such a long time that I figured it was only appropriate to make them for Mr. L and me this week!
My mom usually just marinates the pork chops in Dale's Original Steak Seasoning and calls it a day, but I like to add just a little something-something to kick it up a notch. Garlic is always a household favorite, and Mr. L looooves freshly cracked black pepper. So of course I had to add both to the pork chop party!
The chops turned out so juicy and delicious! Next time I'll probably go the Low Sodium Dale's route just to ease up on the sodium content, but everything else was perfect. Just be wary -- that freshly cracked black pepper can catch you off guard if you aren't careful! Haha. Otherwise this recipe is a perfect for summertime grilling and I can't wait to make it more during the season. You should give it a shot too!
Ingredients [4 servings]
- 4 bone-in pork chops
- 1/4 cup Dale's Original Steak Seasoning or Dale's Low Sodium Steak Seasoning (if you find the original Dale's too salty)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
Directions
Place the bone-in pork chops in a large gallon-size resealable bag.
In a small bowl, combine together the Dale's Seasoning, garlic, and black pepper. Pour the mixture into the gallon-size bag and make sure the pork chops are thoroughly coated. Refrigerate for at least two hours.
Preheat your grill to around medium heat. Place the pork chops on the grill and cook for about 4 minutes, or until juices start to pool on top of the chops. Then flip and cook for another 3 minutes.
Allow to rest for about three to five minutes. Then serve with your favorite vegetable and starch and enjoy!
Trying this tonight! We been using Dale's since they were a little shop in B'ham. Dad and Uncle took a case a beer in there and they would give them several cases at a time! That was a long time ago. Thanks! B
