Servings 6 chops
Calories 219kcal
Ingredients
- 6 1- inch thick boneless pork chops about 2 1/2 lbs
- 1 Tbsp brown sugar
- 4 large garlic cloves minced
- 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 heaping tsp marjoram finely ground (see note)
- 2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp black pepper finely ground (see note)
- 1 tsp coriander finely ground (see note)
Instructions
- Rub the pork chops with Worcestershire sauce and let sit for about 15 minutes while you are starting your grill. Dry the meat with a paper towel, then evenly apply the salt, sugar, spices and the garlic.
- Now, place the chops on preheated grill/smoker and smoke over indirect heat at about 200F-225F for about an hour to 1 ½ hours, until the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 130F.
- Move the pork chips over to direct heat and sear over high heat on both sides until the internal temperature reaches 145F.
- Remove the chops from the grill/smoker, cover with foil and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
I find that the easiest way to make finely ground spices is to put the salt, pepper, coriander and marjoram in mortar and pulverize them with a pestle. This is very easy to do and takes less than 20-30 seconds.
