TIPS FOR JUICY MARINATED GRILLED PORK CHOPS
These pork chops are marinated for an hour. This gives them lots of flavors when grilled. As well, marinating the meat for a longer time will make it more flavorful. However, when you’re short on time, you can do a quick 15-minute marinade.
Get the grill nice and hot before placing the meat on the grill. This will help it sear in moisture.
HOW LONG WILL COOKED PORK CHOPS KEEP IN THE FRIDGE?
The USDA suggests you store cooked pork in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator at 40°F or less. Refrigeration slows but does not stop bacterial growth.
