Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces pork chops
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
- 2 tablespoons chili powder
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the barbecue sauce, chili powder, honey, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels, then lightly coat them with olive oil on all sides.
Rub the marinade generously over each pork chop, ensuring they are fully coated. Place them in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag and let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or up to overnight for deeper flavor).
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the pork chops from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Reserve the remaining marinade for brushing during cooking.
Grill the pork chops for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are nicely charred and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Brush the chops with the reserved marinade halfway through cooking for extra flavor.
Once cooked, remove the pork chops from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes to retain their juices.
Serve the chili barbecue chops warm with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, coleslaw, or mashed potatoes.
