Got some bone in chops to grill tonight. But past attempts have been kind of dry.
Any ideas about marinade or cooking technique?
TIA.

Dissolve salt and sugar in 3 quarts cold water in 2-gallon zipper-lock plastic bag. Add chops and seal bag, pressing out as much air as possible. (Alternatively, divide brine and chops evenly between two 1-gallon zipper-lock bags.) Refrigerate, turning bag once, until fully seasoned, about 1 hour. Remove chops from brine and dry thoroughly with paper towels. Coat chops with spice rub or season generously with pepper.

2. Light grill and turn all burners to high; cover and heat grill 15 minutes. Use wire brush to scrape cooking grate clean. Turn off all but one burner. Place chops over hotter part of grill, cover, and cook until browned on each side, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Move chops to cooler side of grill. Cover and continue cooking, turning once, until instant-read thermometer inserted through side of chop and away from bone registers 135 degrees, 7 to 9 minutes longer. Transfer chops to platter, tent loosely with foil, and let rest 5 minutes. Internal temperature should rise to 145 degrees. Serve immediately.

I agree with brining them first.

How thin/thick? Brining could be overkill if they are thin. Just don't overcook them. Pork DOES NOT have to be cooked to well done.

Not the healthiest way but my favorite way is to dip them in egg wash, coat in italian bread crumbs and then fry em up in a cast iron skillet.

This is why I don't eat pork chops very often

I almost always grill them and baste with Pig Stand cut with Jack Miller's.

Brine and cook until an internal temp of 150 degrees. Let rest for 10 minutes to redistribute the juices.
Do not over cook!
