One of my favorite meals is Barbeque Boneless Pork Chops, Buttery Mashed Potatoes, Baked Beans and Garlic Texas Toast.
Ingredients
4 pork chops or cutlets, around 7-8 ounces (bone-in or boneless)
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Homemade or store-bought BBQ Sauce
FOR THE HOMEMADE BBQ SAUCE
1/2 cup apple juice
1/2 cup ketchup
3 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
FOR THE HOMEMADE BBQ SAUCE: Combine all of the barbecue sauce ingredients on the stove in a medium pan over medium heat. Bring ingredients to a boil and then reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring while simmering. Set aside.
FOR THE BBQ PORK CHOPS:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Place pork chops on a cutting board or on a plate.
Mix the paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper in a small mixing bowl.
Rub the spice mixture on both sides of the 4 pork chops. Use a brush to spread the BBQ sauce on both sides of the pork chops.
Place the pork chops in a large baking dish or on a baking sheet with a wire rack.
Bake the pork chops in the oven, flipping half way through and spreading more BBQ sauce on the pork chops.
This will take about 12-14 minutes for 1/2 inch/ 1 cm inch thick pork chops, or 20 to 22 minutes for 1 inch/ 2 1/2 cm thickness or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees F.
Remove pork chops from the oven, cover or tent with foil and let rest for 5 minutes.
Garnishes with green onions (opitional) and serve warm.
