These pork chops are a spicy alternative to baked, pan cooked, or even marinated grilled pork chops. They don't need much time on a hot grill, and they stay nice and juicy if you keep the time short. The Firecracker Salsa cools down the spicy meat, but also has it's own heat -- jalapeno pepper. This is a great combination, and I'm not normally a fan of fruit and meat.

That sounds delicious. Might have to try it when we get back. Got a great deal on pork chops from the butchers, but am always at a loss for good recipes for them. I like the thought of grilling them! YUM!
