Grilled BBQ Kasseler Pork Chops | Smoky & Juicy Glazed

Prepare the grill for direct and indirect medium heat (approx. 180–200 °C). Pat the Kasseler pork chops dry, brush thinly with 2 tbsp vegetable oil, and season evenly with 1 tsp smoked paprika and 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper. Since Kasseler is already cured, no additional salt is needed.

For the glaze, stir together 150 ml barbecue sauce, 60 ml apple juice, 2 tbsp maple syrup, and 2 tbsp medium-hot mustard in a small bowl until smooth.

First, sear the Kasseler pork chops over direct heat for about 2–3 minutes on each side until distinct grill marks form.
