Easy Weeknight Meal


This has been a really busy week for all of us.  Dinner had to come together quickly because there was no extra time for frilly or fancy meals this week.  Pork chops were already on the menu for the week so I chose some thin sliced chops for quick grilling.  A quick dry rub and 10 minutes on the grill made these pork chops not only quick but also delicious. Check out that mashed cauliflower on the plate too. 

Barbeque Pork Chops
Rub:
2 Tablespoons brown sugar                 1 ½ teaspoons cumin
2 teaspoons salt                                       ½ teaspoon dry mustard
2 teaspoons paprika                                ¼ teaspoon allspice
2 teaspoons chili powder                      ¼ teaspoon red pepper
1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder

Thin chops make grilling time really short.


I mixed up the rub and sprinkled it on the chops just before grilling.



I cooked the pork chops on the Big Green Egg for about 10 minutes on each side at 300 degrees.



I served the pork chops with mashed cauliflower, fresh green beans and yeast rolls.


The pork chops were delicious and I love the fact that dinner came together in under 30 minutes.  If you have a busy week ahead, make sure you put these grilled pork chops on your menu.

Ciao!
