Ingredients
  

  • 4  pork chops

SIGNATURE SWEET RUB

  • ¼ cup   dark brown sugar
  • 1  Tablespoon  coarse kosher salt
  • 2  teaspoons  cracked black pepper
  • 2  teaspoons  smoked paprika
  • 2  teaspoons  garlic powder
  • 2  teaspoons  onion powder
  • 1  teaspoon  ground mustard
  • ½  teaspoon  cayenne pepper

Instructions
 

  • Make the rub. Combine all ingredients for the rub in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Preheat. Allow the grill to preheat to medium-high heat (around 400 degrees F) for two-zone cooking (one direct heat side and one indirect heat side).
  • Season. Season the pork chops with Sweet Rub on all sides and press the rub into the meat.
  • Sear. Place the chops on the hottest part of the grill and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side.
  • Finish grilling. Move the chops to the indirect heat side of the grill and continue cooking for an additional 5-6 minutes per side until the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 145 degrees F.
  • Rest and serve. Remove the chops from the grill and allow them to rest for 5-6 minutes before slicing.
