Cajun-style spiced pork chops

by Cyndi Lavin on June 23rd, 2008

Another lovely grilling recipe brought to us by the Hearth, Patio, and Barbecue Association. Pork chops are naturally low in fat, and grilling them keeps them nice and juicy on the insides :-)

1 tablespoon paprika
2-1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon each onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne
3/4 teaspoon each white pepper, black pepper, dried thyme, oregano
4-6 center cut bone-in pork chops (about 2-2-1/2 pounds)

Mix all ingredients except pork and store in an airtight container. Rub chops with rub. Prepare medium-hot fire and grill chops over indirect heat for 5-6 minutes on each side. Chops are ready when internal temperature is 160 degrees F, as measured with an instant-read thermometer.

Makes approximately 4-6 servings.
