Ingredients
- 6 - 7 (1/2-inch inch thick) bone-in pork chops (about 8 oz each)
Pork Chop Marinade
- 1 cup apple juice
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2 1/2 tsp kosher salt
Pork Chop Dry Rub
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 3/4 tsp paprika
- 3/4 tsp garlic powder
- 3/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper , or more to taste
Instructions
For the marinade
- To a mixing bowl add apple juice, apple cider vinegar, honey, dijon and kosher salt, whisk well.
- Place pork chops in a gallon size resealable bag, pour apple juice mixture over pork chops. Seal bag while pressing out excess air, rub marinade over pork. Transfer to refrigerator and let marinate 2 - 4 hours (if possible turn bag halfway through marinating to move marinade around).
- Preheat a grill over medium heat (about 375 degrees). Clean grill grates and brush with vegetable or olive oil (using tongs and an oiled paper towel).
For the dry rub
- In a mixing bowl whisk together cumin, paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, onion powder, cinnamon and cayenne pepper.
- Remove pork chops from marinade and dab both sides dry with paper towels. Sprinkle spice mixture evenly over both sides of pork chops.
To grill pork chops
- Cook on grill until center registers 145 degrees on an instant read thermometer, about 3 minutes per side. Let rest off heat 3 - 5 minutes before serving for juices to redistribute before slicing.
Notes
- If you don't have a grill you can also cook these in a grill pan on the stove.
- Bone-in pork chops have the most flavor, which is why I recommend using them instead of boneless.
- If you don't have apple juice on hand, white grape juice should work as well.
