Instructions for Preparing BBQ Pork Chop Dry Rub
Follow these steps to make your pork chop dry rub:
- In a medium bowl, combine all the dry ingredients: brown sugar, paprika, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, oregano, and cumin. Mix thoroughly until all spices are evenly distributed.
- Pat your pork chops dry with a paper towel to ensure the rub adheres well.
- Generously apply the dry rub over both sides of the pork chops. Massage the spices into the meat for maximum flavor absorption.
- Let the pork chops sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. For deeper flavor, consider letting them marinate in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight.
- Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the pork chops for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F.
- Remove the pork chops from the heat and let them rest for 5-10 minutes. This step allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a moist and flavorful chop when cut.
Serve your perfectly seasoned BBQ pork chops with your favorite sides and relish the explosion of flavors in every bite. Enjoy this delightful recipe at your next family gathering or dinner party for an unforgettable meal.
