Garlic & Herb Pork Chops

Ingredients Needed:

Pork Chops: We are using thick, center cut pork chops that we sliced ourselves from a pork loin. Bone- in pork chops work for this recipe too but may take a bit longer to cook.

Olive Oil: Adds moisture to the lean pork chops and helps the rub stick to the pork. 

Garlic and Herb Rub: Brown Sugar, Granulated Garlic, Onion Powder, Ground Rosemary, Dried Thyme, Dried Basil, Smoked Paprika, Kosher Salt, Pepper, Dry Mustard.
