Pork Chop Dry Rub

pork-chop-dry-rub

Today, I’m laying out a dry rub for pork chops.  I prefer bone-in chops as they remain so much juicier while cooking, but boneless pork chops are also a joy to eat.

We usually grill 2 rather large chops at a time, so just scale up all of the ingredients proportionally if you are cooking for a bigger crowd.

    I made these in the oven last night and they were the best pork chops I have ever eaten. Thank you

  • Doubled this recipe since we had 8-9 small boneless chops and it was way too salty. Will try again with single batch and half the salt.

    I have made these chops three times now. They are so delicious. My oven temp display so I am cooking them on my Traeger tomorrow, and really excited for dinner tomorrow. I actually got this dish in the eat happy cookbook that I dearly love.

  • I bought a couple of pork steaks for the first time the other day. I realized I had no idea how to season them! So I looked up dry rub recipes and came across yours…omg!! So stinkin’ delicious!!! My husband and I both loved it! Thanks girl!

  • Hey, I notice that the book has this recipe … but with the addition of olive oil … what are the plusses and minuses of the oil??
