For an even deeper flavor, consider using a high-quality, artisanal root beer. Marinating the pork chops overnight will result in a more tender and flavorful dish. If you don't have an outdoor grill, you can also cook the pork chops in a skillet on the stovetop or bake them in the oven. Adjust the amount of chipotle hot sauce to your preference. For a milder flavor, use a smaller amount or omit it altogether. Resting the pork chops before serving allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chop.

01 Step
Recipe View 2 hrs Marinate the Pork: Place the pork chops in a dish and pour 2 cans of root beer over them. Ensure the chops are fully submerged. Refrigerate and marinate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight for maximum flavor absorption.
02 Step
Recipe View 5 mins Season the Pork: Remove the pork chops from the root beer marinade. Pat them dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
03 Step
Recipe View 20 mins Prepare the Reduction Sauce: In a saucepan, combine the remaining can of root beer, beef stock, brown sugar, chipotle-flavored hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat and allow it to reduce to about 3/4 cup. This will concentrate the flavors into a glaze-like consistency. Set aside.
04 Step
Recipe View 5 mins Preheat the Grill: Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat (about 375-450°F or 190-232°C). Lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking.
05 Step
Recipe View 16 mins Grill the Pork Chops: Place the seasoned pork chops on the preheated grill. Grill for approximately 8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Use an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the thickest chop to ensure doneness.
06 Step
Recipe View 4 mins Glaze the Pork Chops: Once the pork chops are cooked through, brush them generously with the prepared reduction sauce. Continue grilling for another 2 minutes per side, allowing the sauce to caramelize and create a flavorful glaze.
07 Step
Recipe View 5 mins Rest and Serve: Remove the grilled pork chops from the grill and let them rest for about 5 minutes before serving. Brush with any remaining sauce and season with a pinch of salt to taste. Serve immediately and enjoy!
