Why You'll Love This Grilled Pork Chops Recipe

When we lived in Vegas, we often had dinner with my in-laws, and one thing I always looked forward to was my father-in-law firing up the grill. He's the one who taught my husband how to master grilling, and everything he makes comes off tender, juicy, and perfectly cooked.

This seasoning blend is straight from my mother-in-law's kitchen: a little salt and pepper, garlic powder, and Herbes de Provence. Simple as it sounds, the results are absolutely incredible every single time. Here's why you've got to try these pork chops:

Ingredient Information And Substitutions

Pork chops- Boneless, and just over an inch thick for the best results. Bone-in pork chops work just as well, but adjust the cooking time based on thickness.
Cooking spray- To prevent sticking on the grill.
Garlic powder- Adds savory depth to the seasoning blend. Fresh minced garlic works as a substitute.
Herbes de Provence- The star of the seasoning blend, giving these pork chops their signature herbaceous flavor. Italian seasoning works as a substitute, or use whatever herbs you prefer.
Black pepper- Freshly cracked, to taste.
Kosher salt- To taste.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long should I leave pork chops on the grill?

This will vary based on the thickness of your chop. For chops around an inch thick, cook for about 5-6 minutes per side. Keep an eye on them and use a meat thermometer to nail the doneness every time.

What is the ideal temperature for pork chops?

Pork chops are safe to eat and perfectly juicy at 145 degrees F. Pull them off the grill at 140 degrees and let them rest. The temperature will carry over to 145 as they sit and the juices will redistribute in the pork chops instead of running out onto your cutting board whe nyou cut into them..

How hot should the grill be?

Medium-high heat is the sweet spot for grilled pork chops, hot enough to get a good sear without drying out the meat.

Tips For Making Dry Rub For Grilled Pork Chops

Always bring the pork chops to room temperature before grilling. Taking them out of the fridge 15-20 minutes ahead helps them cook more evenly.
Season both sides generously. Don't be shy with the rub, as the seasoning is what makes these so flavorful.
Don't press down on the chops while they're grilling. It squeezes out the juices and can dry them out.
Only flip once! Constant flipping prevents a good sear from forming and causes uneven results.
Use a meat thermometer. Cooking time varies based on the thickness of each chop and your grill, so a thermometer in the thickest part of the meat is the most reliable way to get it right every time!
Rest the meat for 5 minutes after grilling. Tenting with foil allows the juices to redistribute, giving you a much juicier chop.
Ingredients to prep ahead- Mix the seasoning blend ahead of time and store in an airtight container until ready to use.
Leftovers and storage- Keep covered in the fridge for up to 3 days.
