Essential Tools
instant- read thermometer

Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp plus 2 tsp Pit Happens
- ½ tsp chopped fresh thyme plus sprigs for garnish (optional)
- 4 (8-ounce) bone-in pork chops
- Vegetable oil (for grill)
- 2 small lemons, cut crosswise in half
Directions
- In a small bowl, combine Pit Happens BBQ Rub and thyme. Sprinkle the pork chops with seasoning mixture.
- Preheat a gas or charcoal grill on medium-high heat (350°F) for 15 minutes.
- Oil a clean kitchen towel and use tongs to coat the hot grill grate with oil. Use tongs to place the pork chops and lemons, cut side down, on the hot grill grate. Cook the pork chops, uncovered, for 12 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the pork chops reaches 140°F (internal temperature will rise 5° to 10°F upon standing), turning once halfway through cooking. Cook the lemons 5 minutes or until grill marks appear.
- Transfer the pork chops and lemons to a serving platter; loosely cover with aluminum foil and let stand 10 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
- Serve pork chops with lemons for squeezing over pork. Garnish with thyme sprigs, if desired.
