Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
- Place the brown sugar, ketchup, mayonnaise, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, and cayenne pepper into a bowl, and stir until blended.
- Place the pork chops on the preheated grill, and cook the chops until the surface is seared but the meat is just barely pink in the middle, about 5 minutes. Brush the chops with the glaze mixture, and flip to cook the glaze onto the meat. When the glazed side shows good grill marks, flip again, brush glaze onto the pork chops, flip, and grill until the other side shows nice brown grill marks. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a chop should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

GRILLED PORK CHOPS WITH PEPPERS AND BALSAMIC GLAZE
Steps:
- For the hot and sweet pepper relish: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Toss peppers with canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast in oven, turning once, until charred on both sides, about 25 minutes total. Remove to a bowl, cover top with plastic and let steam for 10 minutes. Remove the skin and seeds and thinly slice.
- Whisk together the balsamic, garlic, honey and parsley in a large bowl, season with salt and pepper. Add the red and yellow peppers and cherry peppers and toss to coat. Let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
- Relish can be made up to 8 hours in advance and stored, covered in refrigerator. Bring to room temperature before serving.
- For the balsamic reduction: Put the vinegar in a nonreactive (such as stainless steel) pan, bring to a boil and cook until reduced to 1/2 cup. Then stir in the honey, transfer to a bowl and let cool to room temperature; it will thicken as it cools.
- For the pork chops: Whisk together the vinegar, honey, 1/4 cup oil, parsley and thyme and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Remove the pork from the refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling to take the chill off.
- Heat your grill to high or a cast iron grill pan over high heat. Brush the pork chops on both sides with canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill on one side until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Turn over and grill until the other side until golden brown. Brush with some of the glaze, turn, brush with more glaze and turn again until a crust forms and pork is cooked through, (it should register 145 degrees F on instant read thermometer), about 10 to 12 minutes total.
- To serve: Transfer the chops to a plate, top with some of the relish and drizzle with balsamic reduction. Garnish with parsley leaves.

Steps:
- Put pork chops on a plate; drizzle with oil; season generously with salt and pepper; let sit for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, build a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill or heat a gas grill to medium-high heat. Combine vinegar and honey in a 1-qt. saucepan and cook over medium heat until reduced to 1/4 cup. Stir in butter and rosemary and set aside.
- Put pork chops on grill and cook, occasionally turning and basting with balsamic mixture, until browned and cooked through, 12-14 minutes. Transfer to a platter and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
Tips:
- To ensure the pork chops are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that they have reached an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 155°F (68°C) for medium, or 165°F (74°C) for well-done.
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the doneness of the pork chops by cutting into one. The meat should be slightly pink in the center for medium-rare, slightly less pink for medium, and completely white with no pink for well-done.
- Be sure to marinate the pork chops for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours. This will help to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
- If you don't have time to marinate the pork chops, you can still make this recipe. Just be sure to cook them over medium-low heat so that they don't dry out.
- Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
Conclusion:
This Sweet Hot Pepper Glazed Grilled Pork Chops recipe is an easy and delicious way to enjoy pork chops. The sweet and spicy glaze is the perfect complement to the tender and juicy pork chops. This recipe is sure to be a hit at your next cookout or family dinner.
