SPICE-RUBBED GRILLED PORK CHOPS
Dry rubs are also a terrific way to season pork chops. Select chops of close to an inch in thickness - nothing flimsy - then grill them over steady medium heat. We opt for rib chops over the center-cut variety when cooking outdoors because their greater fat content helps keep them moist, and we always prefer bone-in chops for their juiciness. You might add a barbecue sauce on the side with these, but we relish their crispy surface unvarnished.

Steps:
- At least 1 and up to 8 hours before you plan to grill the pork chops, prepare the dry rub, combining the ingredients in a small bowl. Coat the chops with the spice mixture, place them in a large plastic bag, seal, and refrigerate.
- Fire up the grill, bringing the heat to medium (4 to 5 seconds with the hand test).
- Remove the chops from the refrigerator and let them sit covered at room temperature for about 20 minutes.
- Spray the chops with oil and transfer them to the grill. Grill for 18 to 20 minutes total. Turn onto each side twice, rotating the chops a half turn each time to get criss-cross grill marks. The chops are done when just a hint of pink remains at the center. Serve hot.

Steps:
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Rub pork chops on both sides with spice rub. When skillet is hot, add oil, swirling to coat bottom of pan. Add pork chops, and cook until golden brown and just cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the pork chops.
Tips:
- To ensure the pork chops are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The chops are done when they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius).
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check the chops for doneness by cutting into them. The chops are done when the juices run clear and there is no pink in the center.
- To make the sorghum BBQ sauce, you can use store-bought sorghum syrup or make your own. To make your own sorghum syrup, simply simmer sorghum juice in a pot until it thickens. This will take about 1-2 hours.
- If you don't have sorghum syrup, you can substitute another type of syrup, such as maple syrup or brown sugar syrup.
- To add a smoky flavor to the pork chops, you can cook them on a grill or in a smoker. If you don't have a grill or smoker, you can also cook the chops in a skillet on the stovetop over medium heat.
Conclusion:
Spice-rubbed pork chops with sorghum BBQ sauce are a delicious and easy-to-make meal. The pork chops are tender and juicy, and the sorghum BBQ sauce is sweet and tangy. This dish is perfect for a summer cookout or a weeknight dinner. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or coleslaw.
