When we lived in Las Vegas, we often gathered for dinner with my in-laws. We stayed with them for a while when we first arrived, and beyond that it was simply a favorite way to spend time together. One of the highlights was my father-in-law’s grilled pork chops. He taught Justin how to grill so that the meat comes off tender, juicy and perfectly cooked every time.
J’s mother seasons meat in a straightforward, reliable way that we love: a little salt and pepper, garlic powder, and Herbes de Provence. The combination is simple but very tasty, and it’s an easy method to repeat on busy weeknights.

- What is the ideal internal temperature? Cook pork chops to 145°F for a juicy, safe result.
- How hot should the grill be? Preheat to medium-high or just below medium-high.
