Pork chops are such a versatile meat that can be prepared in a variety of ways. Grilling pork chops is always extremely popular and by adding the sweetness of honey, the pork chops really come alive.
Using center-cut boneless pork chops on your Foreman Grill or other indoor contact grill is always the best way to go. Bone-in pork chops can indeed be used, but depending on the thickness and evenness, it can often be a challenge.
Best to stick with the center-cut boneless variety for this purpose. Also, you’ll get the best results by using pork chops that are thin-cut. 1/4″-1/2″ thickness is the absolute best for your indoor grill. Any thicker and it starts to get difficult to grill properly. If all you have are thick-cut pork chops, use a good knife and slice them in half.

Awesome dish my family is in love with the awesome pork chops thats what we call them
Unfortunately, at 5 minutes per side (10 minutes total cooking time) for slightly thicker than 1/2” chop was wayyyyyyyyyyyy too long. The marinade was good but next time I would cook for five or six minutes TOTAL. My internal temp at 5 minutes per side was about 165. Poured lots of marinade over the chops in an attempt to moisten them up
Good flavor pork chops, thank you.
