Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375β400Β°F) or preheat your oven to 400Β°F if baking.
Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Rub the pork chops with olive oil on both sides, then sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the chops, making sure to coat each side thoroughly.
If grilling: Place the pork chops on the preheated grill. Cook for 4β5 minutes on the first side, then flip and cook for another 4β5 minutes on the other side. Brush the chops generously with barbecue sauce during the last 2 minutes of cooking on each side.
If baking: Arrange the seasoned pork chops on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and brush with barbecue sauce. Return to the oven and bake for another 8β10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145Β°F.
Remove the pork chops from the heat and let them rest for 3β5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Serve the pork chops warm, garnished with additional barbecue sauce if desired. Pair with your favorite sides, such as coleslaw, corn on the cob, or mashed potatoes.
