Instructions
Creating Sweet & Savory Brown Sugar Beef Chops is simple if you follow these easy steps:
1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, combine brown sugar, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Mix until well combined.
2. Marinate the Chops: Place the beef chops in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chops, ensuring they are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor).
3. Preheat the Grill or Oven: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or your oven to 400°F (200°C).
4. Sear the Chops: If grilling, place the marinated beef chops directly on the grill. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until a nice crust forms. If using an oven, place the chops on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
5. Check for Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches at least 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare. Adjust cooking time as needed based on thickness.
6. Rest the Meat: Once cooked, remove the beef chops from the heat and let them rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a juicier chop.
7. Garnish and Serve: Optionally, garnish with fresh herbs before serving. Enjoy your Sweet & Savory Brown Sugar Beef Chops with your favorite sides.
