About Texas Roadhouse Grilled Pork Chops
The Grilled Pork Chops are the value sleeper of the Country Dinners: boneless chops grilled like the steaks, a single for $14.49 at 440 calories or the double at $17.99, with two sides riding along. Ask for the peppercorn sauce; it costs nothing and regulars consider the plate incomplete without it.
Pork chops at chain restaurants usually arrive dry and apologetic. These come off the same high-heat grill as the sirloins, cooked to a juicy blush rather than gray submission, which is why the double-chop order exists at all. It is the plate people try once on a budget night and then defend forever.
