Grilled Herb and Garlic Pork Chops

Grilled Herb and Garlic Pork Chops are a perfect simple summer dinner.  Tossed in a simple herb marinate these pork chops are full of flavor and delicious served with your favorite sides.

During the summer months, and even into fall, we are always looking forward to cooking out on our firepit grill. We love grilling anything for meals, steak, burgers, hot dogs, vegetables, bacon, you name it....even toast! Grilling out on the firepit grill is something that we always do while camping, so we also enjoy that when we are at home too.

We have our firepit grill in our back yard, some nights we sit out around the fire as a family and toast marshmallows, or just sit and relax. Other nights we have the fire going, and put our meat on the grill, and work outside, all the kids are outside playing and we keep check on the meat on the grill. It's just a nice time to all be outside!

No worries, these Grilled Herb and Garlic Pork Chops can be made on a standard grill too!! Any grill will do.

For these Grilled Herb and Garlic Pork Chops, you start with a little prep chopping the delicious herbs; parsley, sage, thyme, and rosemary. Also mincing the garlic. Then combine them all together with the oil.

Place the pork chops in a 9x13 baking dish and coat each side with the herb/garlic mix and let them marinate for 6 to 8 hours or overnight. When ready to cook, scrape off the big chunks of herbs and garlic.

Place on the grill and cook for approximately 30 minutes, flipping occassionally to cook both sides evenly. When they are done, let them rest for 10 minutes before serving and cutting, so they stay nice and juicy.

These Grilled Herb and Garlic Pork Chops are flavorful and juicy and pair great with a variety of sides for a delicious summer grilled meal.
