This just might be one of the best pork chops you've ever had. Start with a double thick cut pork rib chop, add a flavorful spice rub and then grill to perfection. Because of the thickness of this chop it needs a little special care to get it cooked through the middle without burning the surface, but it really is as easy as it is delicious. These chops are served with a delectable creamy Dijon aioli. Add to this a side of grilled vegetables for the perfect meal.

Gather the ingredients.
Trim excess fat from pork chops. Make cuts through the band of fat that runs around the edge of the chop.
Combine all spice ingredients and apply to the surface of the chops.
Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Remove chops from refrigerator and preheat grill to a high heat and prepare for indirect grilling.
Place pork chops on the hot portion of the grill and sear each side for about 2 to 3 minutes. Watch for burning and flare-ups.
Move to the indirect grilling space and close the lid. Continue cooking for 20 to 30 minutes (depending on your grill). Check for an internal temperature of 145 F/65 C. Remove from grill when done and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving. Served with a Dijon mustard aioli on the side.
