Ingredients
- 2 "T-Bone" Pork Chops Around 350-400g Each and 25mm or 1" thick
- 1 tablespoon Cooking Oil
- ½-¾ teaspoon Salt
- ½ teaspoon Black Pepper
For the Sauce:
- 125 ml BBQ Sauce ½ Cup
- 75 ml Beef Stock ⅓ Cup
- 2 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
- ¼ teaspoon Tabasco Sauce
- 2 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried Thyme
- 1 teaspoon Onion Granules
- ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
Instructions
- Mix the ingredients for the sauce in a bowl or a jug.
- Season them with the salt and pepper.
- Heat a pan that is large enough to hold the pork chops over a medium heat, and when it is hot, add the oil and sear the pork chops. Cook the pork chops on the fat (rind end) until they are golden and the fat has begun to soften.
- Increase the heat to medium-high and then sear both sides of the chops.
- Pour over the sauce and flip the chops over to coat them, add a lid and transfer to the oven and bake (fan-assisted) at 200°C or 390°F or in a regular oven at 220°C (450°F) for 12-15 minutes. Test that the pork has reached your desired level of "doneness" with a meat thermometer. I remove mine a 58-59°C (135°F) and rest for 5 minutes.
