You only need sauce if they are overcooked. A good chop is like a good steak…sauce is not required.
March 16, 2025 at 3:54 pm #2324342some times, there are so many other seasonings and flavors to be had… like Sharon said, horseradish too..
and plain good oh chop is good too as Matt said

As others have mentioned. No sauce is needed then.March 16, 2025 at 4:06 pm #2324345Yeah, hot as possible. Get the internal temp to 135 and let rest for 5 mins.
I like a mix of salt, garlic powder, coriander, and paprika. Coat lightly with olive oil and then cover with the seasonings completely.

March 16, 2025 at 4:57 pm #2324354Tough call. There’s almost nothing you can do to a good thick chop that will make anything less than enjoyable.
Excluding overlooking.

Pull at 135 to 140. Rest in cold oven for 5 minutes and they will be as juicy as ever.March 16, 2025 at 7:13 pm #2324378Nay. Absolutely nothing that is vinegar based. Rub with garlic, salt, and preferred peppers. Indirect heat until about 95-100 internal.cover with peach or pear slices and continue to 130-135. Wrap In foil with a splash of squirt soda and let rest for 5-10 minutes. I prefer to place on heat rack holding 150 degrees. Serve with a glass of good bourbon and enjoy

Interesting.
Do they make a good Bourbon?
March 16, 2025 at 8:07 pm #2324386A local butcher shop sells 1” thick cut smoked pork chop,all that has to be done is warmed up.
March 16, 2025 at 8:53 pm #2324389Yay! But also good with a big glob of horseradish sauce!
That’s my girl!
March 16, 2025 at 10:28 pm #2324392I make a homemade pepper corn sauce for mine. Goes good with steaks too.

Im of two schools of thought, unless you marinade them first, do not put any BBQ sauce on them until after they are cooked. Otherwise I really like marinaded uncooked bone in chops and grill to your liking. No additional saucing required when done.
I get mine from McDonalds meats in Clear Lake and they have quite the variety but I am sure you can find them in a lot of butcher shops outside of going to a regular big box store.March 17, 2025 at 7:42 am #2324418I buy a pig every year and like to mix things up. Many great suggestions have been made. My wife really likes it when I make a raspberry chipotle marinade and grill them. The last two pork chop dinners I went breaded and think I will do some sort of breading one next.
