Begin by marinating the pork chops in a mixture of 1/4 cup bourbon, 1/4 cup maple syrup, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, and 1 teaspoon smoked paprika for at least 30 minutes.
While the pork is marinating, prepare the spicy apple slaw by shredding 2 cups of green cabbage and 1 cup of carrots into a large bowl.
Thinly slice 1 large apple and add it to the bowl with the cabbage and carrots.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 teaspoon sriracha, and salt to taste.
Pour the dressing over the slaw mixture and toss well to combine.
Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates.
Remove the pork chops from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off, and place them on the grill.
Grill the pork chops for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F.
During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the remaining marinade over the pork chops for added flavor.
