Tips:
- Meat selection: Bone-in pork chops stay juicier, but boneless chops also work. Adjust cooking time if thinner.
- Whiskey choice: Bourbon will make the glaze sweeter, while rye whiskey adds a sharper, spicier edge.
- Grilling option: Cook chops on a preheated grill, brushing with glaze during the last 5 minutes for a smoky finish.
- Make-ahead: The sauce can be prepared in advance and stored for up to 3 days.
