Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Center-cut bone-in pork chops
  • 1 cup Yellow mustard
  • 0.33 cup Honey
  • 0.25 cup Apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Light brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
  • 0.25 teaspoon Cayenne pepper(optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the mustard, honey, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, paprika, and cayenne until smooth.

  2. 2

    Set aside half of the sauce in a small jar to serve at the table, using the other half for basting.

  3. 3

    Season both sides of the pork chops generously with salt and black pepper.

  4. 4

    Prepare your charcoal grill for medium-high direct heat, ensuring the grates are clean and lightly oiled.

  5. 5

    Place the pork chops on the grill and cook for 4 to 5 minutes on the first side without moving them to get a good sear.

  6. 6

    Flip the chops and immediately brush the grilled side liberally with the Carolina Gold sauce.

  7. 7

    Continue grilling for another 4 to 5 minutes, flipping once more to glaze the other side, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

  8. 8

    Remove the pork chops from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving with the reserved sauce.
