Ingredients

For the Pork Chops:

  • 2 thick cut pork chops, at least 1 ½ - 2 inches thick
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

For the Rub:

  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon dried sage

For the Prosecco Brown Butter Sauce:

  • cup unsalted butter
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon shallots, diced
  • 1 garlic clove, finely diced
  • 2 large fresh sage leaves, julienned
  • 8 sprigs fresh thyme
  • ¼ cup Prosecco (or other white wine)

Instructions

  • Preheat Grill: set grill for direct/indirect cooking. Target the grill's internal temperature from 400 to 450 degrees F.
  • Season Pork Chops: Coat pork chops with olive oil and then liberally apply dry rub to all sides.
  • Grill: Place the seasoned pork chops over direct heat for 5 minutes per side or until you see a nice flavor crust on the outside. Move the pork chops to indirect heat and finish until the reach your desired internal temperature. We like our pork medium rare and pull them when the internal temperature is 135 degrees F.
  • Rest and Serve: Let rest for 10 minutes and then serve. After you pull the pork it will continue cooking another 5 degrees with carryover cooking.

For the Brown Butter Sauce

  • Over medium-high heat add butter to a cast iron pan. Let simmer for about six minutes, and then add salt, shallots, garlic, sage, and thyme for another two minutes. Finally add the wine to finish for one minute and remove from heat. Serve warm.

For the Pork Chop Seasoning

  • Mix the salt, pepper, oregano, garlic powder, and sage together in a bowl and set aside.

Notes

Note: If you have thin pork chops, they will cook quickly. Modify this recipe by increasing the heat to 500 degrees, and direct grilling, for a faster sear.
