Grill the pork loin for a few minutes on high, or until dark grill marks appear on all sides of the pork. Let it get nice and blackened in a few places, for flavor. Turn the grill down to the lowest heat, or move the pork loin to a spot where will only receive indirect heat. You want the grill to about 300 to 350Â°F. Cover the grill, and let the pork loin cook for about an hour. Check it after 30 minutes, inserting a probe thermometer to check the temperature. When the pork hits 150Â°F*, take it off the grill. Let it rest about 15 minutes, tented with foil.
Pork chops do not come in a standard size. It is the thickness, not the weight, that makes the difference when grilling. For a half-inch-thick pork chop, it will take about five to seven minutes on direct high heat. High heat is around 450 degrees Fahrenheit on the grill. A three-quarters-inch thick pork chop will take around six to eight minutes on high heat. A 1-inch pork chop will cook in about eight to 10 minutes on direct medium heat. Medium heat on a grill is between 350 and 450 degrees. For a pork chop that is 1Â¼ to 1Â½ inches thick, sear each side for a total of six minutes on high heat, then finish grilling over medium heat for another four to six minutes.
