Ingredients

  • 1 Pork Chop
  • Coarse Sea Salt to taste
  • Ground Black Pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons BBQ Rub optional but recommended

Instructions

  • Heat grill to around 375°F (190°C). Season the pork chop with salt and pepper or your favorite spice rub and set aside.
  • Once the grill has preheated to around 375°F (190°C) for 5-10 minutes, place the pork chop on the grill over direct heat. Sear for 2-3 minutes on each side.
  • After both sides have been seared for 2-3 minutes, place the pork chop over indirect/low heat for the remainder of the cook. Cook each side of the pork chop 5-7 minutes or until an internal temperature of 145°F (62°C) has been reached.
  • Once the safe internal temperature of 145°F (62°C) has been reached, take your pork chop off the grill. Allow to rest for 3-5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Once the pork has been removed from the grill, allow to rest for 3-5 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute evenly.
  • If you use a marinade, allow the pork chops to marinate for 30 minutes to 3 hours to really soak up all of the flavors.
  • Add extra flavors by replacing the salt and pepper with your favorite spice rub.
  • When seasoning the meat, don't rub the spices in but rather gently push them into the meat so each bite has a consistent flavor.
