Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 6 oz bone-in pork chops
- 4 tsp Lawry’s lemon pepper seasoning
- 1 pinch Kosher salt
- 1/4 cup olive oil
Instructions
- Combine the lemon pepper seasoning and Kosher salt in a large bowl. Coat the chops in olive oil and sprinkle with the spice mix all over the pork chops.
- Preheat the Pit boss pellet grill to 225°F and add your desired wood chips (apple, cherry, or hickory are great choices).
- Once the Pit Boss is preheated, place pork chops on the grill grates and insert a meat temperature probe into the thickest part of the meat.
- Smoke your pork chops until the internal temperature reaches 145°F. This should take about 70 to 90 minutes.
- Allow the chops to rest for 10 minutes before serving!
Notes
- The total cooking time is an estimate since the exact time depends on the thickness of your pork chops, the pellet grill you’re using, and the temperature of the pork chops when placing them on the smoker.
- If you prefer to make your own lemon pepper seasoning, you will need the zest of two lemons. Combine the zest with 2 tsp each of Kosher salt and crushed black pepper and 1 tsp of garlic powder. Add a little paprika for an extra jolt of flavor.
