Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork chops
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 cup Sugar-free BBQ sauce
Instructions
Start by patting the pork chops dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, which will help them sear better on the grill.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and chili powder. This will be your seasoning rub.
Coat each pork chop evenly on both sides with the seasoning rub, ensuring that the spices adhere well to the meat.
Allow the seasoned pork chops to rest at room temperature while you preheat the grill to medium-high heat, about 400°F (200°C).
While the grill is heating, mix the apple cider vinegar with the sugar-free BBQ sauce in a small bowl. This will be used for basting.
Once the grill is hot, oil the grates lightly to prevent sticking. Place the pork chops on the grill and cook for 5-6 minutes on one side.
Use tongs to flip the pork chops and baste with the BBQ sauce mixture, cooking for another 5-6 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Flip the pork chops once more to caramelize the BBQ sauce slightly, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Remove the pork chops from the grill and let them rest for about 5 minutes to retain their juices.
Serve the grilled pork chops hot, topped with extra BBQ sauce if desired, alongside your favorite Keto-friendly sides.
