I guess it would depend on how thick they are, but why not a roast
(it's easy and you can devote your time with your guests) using
something just a bit different? As an example, how about roasting the
pork chops with sweet potatoes, using cider, dijon mustard, onion,
garlic, and herbs de provence? Or toss the cider and herbs and
substitute Coca-Cola and Worcestshire and some ground cloves? Or as
someone else posted, cutting them into strips for use in a stir-fry?
With the appropriate veggies and some spice (Thai chili paste and a
coupe of diced bird-eye chilis thrown in?), that could be great.
Tired of the grill? C'mon! Spring's a-comin', and that means
barbecue!
