Be Inspired Grilled Sugar and Spice NY Pork Chops Recipe

I'm bravely exploring uncharted territory here. I'm taking baby (back ribs) steps. It's about time that I gave my trusted, go-to protein, chicken a "Get Out of Jail Free" card. I'm going to get a little creative, I'm ready to be inspired by pork. Before the sunny days of grilling season come to an end, we can all let pork take over our grills this grilling season. To get the grill going, I have come across a new, healthy pork chop recipe that I am eager to prepare and our whole family will enjoy. I'm discovering that when it comes to grilling, "Pork's got your grill covered!"
