How do you cook pork chops on a charcoal grill?
Chef's answer
Sear the chops using high heat. Place the pork chops on the hottest part of the grate, directly above the coals. Sear all the chops for about three minutes per side, turning only once, until they develop a brown crust. If the grill flares up, temporarily move the chops away from the coals until the flames die down..

But what's the same in both of these methods is the presence of sodium nitrite (or less commonly sodium nitrate). It inhibits bacterial growth (the extremely dangerous kind that can cause botulism), ensuring the meat is safe to eat, and also causes the meat to retain a pinkish color similar to its raw state.

The answer to this is similar to raw beef: yes and no. Whole cuts of lamb are safe to eat rare as long as you sear the surface. This is because, like beef, bacterial contamination (such as E. coli) is usually only present on the outside.

Gently turn the chops on to their sides, to cook for 2 minutes on each side, or until golden, but still pink in the middle. Meanwhile, use a speed-peeler to peel strips of zest from 1 orange. Sprinkle them into the pan with the thyme sprigs, and toss it all together for just 30 seconds to get the flavours going..
