A fantastic thing about cooking with pork chops is that they’re incredibly versatile. You can go savory, sweet, or spicy. The best pork chops I’ve had were made by my mother- which paired sweeter and spicy seasonings, like cinnamon and clove with freshly sliced granny smith apples and apple juice. Stone fruits and sweet spices work pretty well, especially if you’re grilling the fruit. Garlic and onion are great for savory pork chops and even pair well with a variety of bbq sauces. Brown sugar, sage, paprika, and cumin are also excellent combinations. You can even make Asian-inspired pork chops with soy sauces, sesame seeds, and Chinese five spices.
