Main preparation:

BBQ:

  • Light the BBQ, making sure you also have a spot that is not directly above the heat. Try and keep a temperature of about 160°C.
  • If you have a core-temperature sensor, poke it into one of the porkchops, and try and male sure it's in the core of the meat.
  • Once the BBQ has reached the required temperature, put the porkchops on, making sure they're not directly above the smouldering coal, and put on the lid.
  • Once the coretemperature or the porkchops has reached 50°C (or after about 45-60 minutes) we move the porkchops to the direct heat.
  • Grill them for about 2-3 minutes on each side.

Oven:

  • Preheat the oven to 160°C.
  • Put a grate in an ovendish so that the fat and juices can leak out of the meat while cooking.
