Smoked Pork Chops on a Pellet Grill: A Step-by-Step Guide

Are you ready to indulge in the rich flavors of smoked pork chops? With this easy-to-follow recipe, you'll be able to achieve tender, juicy, and mouth-watering results on your pellet grill. In this article, we'll walk you through the process of smoking bone-in pork chops using a Green Mountain Grill.

Preparation

Before you start cooking, make sure to preheat your Traeger temperature to 165°F with the lid closed for 15 minutes. This will ensure that your grill is ready for the perfect smoke. While waiting, season your pork chops with Blues Hog Sweet and Savory BBQ rub. Don't forget to cover all sides, including the edges.

Smoking

Once preheated, add your pork chops to the 225-degree smoker. Cook them until they reach an internal temperature of 145-155°F. If you're using a Green Mountain Grill, consider using Super Smoke for optimal flavor.

Reverse Searing

To achieve that perfect final touch, use a very hot grill or cast iron pan to do a reverse sear. This step will help bring your pork chops to the final internal temperature of 145°F while adding a crispy crust.

Tips and Variations

* Use a meat thermometer to ensure your pork chops reach the recommended internal temperature of at least 145°F.

* If you prefer a different seasoning, you can never go wrong with garlic salt and pepper.

* For thicker pork chops, be prepared for a longer cooking time. These three pork chops, each about 3/4 inch thick, took approximately 40 minutes to reach an internal temperature of 135°F.
