Chili rubbed Pork chops with Pineapple Salsa


Here is a simple pork chop recipe, the chops have never been dry when I make them like this.  You can either use the outside grill or a grill pan.  I love the salsa over the chops, it gives them a little extra that they need. Sometimes I do add another jalapeño, just watch the seeds if you don't want it too hot.

4 (3/4in) bone-in pork chops, center loin
1 TBSP chili powder
1 1/2 tsp packed light brown sugar
3/4 tsp garlic powder
3/4 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt

Pineapple Salsa
3 (1/2 inch think) crosswise slices of pineapple
1 med. jalapeño, halved and seeded
1 TBSP lime juice
Salt to taste

In a shallow bowl, combine the spices and sprinkle over the chops and allow to sit at room temperature.

Prepare grill to med-high.  Grill pineapple and jalapeño until lightly charred (3 minutes per side).  Remove from grill. Combine with lime juice and salt.

Grill pork until internal temp. Reaches 145-160. (5min per side)

Serve chops with salsa.

I will also put up a different pineapple salsa that I use, please watch for it.
