Chef’s secret
For a nice pink centre, remove the meat from the grill when the internal temperature reaches 63°C (145 °F). The temperature will rise another 5 to 7°C (40-45 °F) while the meat is standing.
Nutrition tip
Most of the fat on a pork chop is around the edges. You can easily remove it before or after grilling to reduce the fat content.
