JUICY GRILLED THIN-CUT PORK CHOPS
I am posting this because these are the juiciest pork chops I've ever come across, even the second day. I hate left over pork chops because they are always dry. I usually make my via Shake & Bake, but only make two to avoid any leftovers. I saw this on Cook's Country and thought, why not, I love grilling and buying 4 at a time is usually the better bargain. I was shocked how juicy and tender they were. I have found my new leftover pork chop recipe. I hope you will too with this one.

- Once grill is hot place chops on and grill 3-4 minutes each side. Meaty part of chop should face center. Remove from grill and dollop with chive butter. Cover gently and let sit for 5 minutes. Serve and enjoy.
