Ingredients

4 bone-in pork chops, each about 1 inch thick

2 tbsp olive oil

1/4 cup Dijon mustard

1/4 cup pure maple syrup

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/2 tsp smoked paprika

Instructions

1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

2. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika to create the marinade.

3. Place the pork chops in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well-coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours, in the refrigerator.

4. Remove the pork chops from the marinade and place them on the grill. Discard any leftover marinade.

5. Grill the pork chops for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F, and they have nice grill marks.

6. Remove from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Storage

Store any leftover pork chops in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Reheating

To reheat, preheat your oven to 275°F and warm the pork chops for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through.
