Step 1

Preheat your smoker to 225 degrees F. I prefer to use apple when smoking pork, but any fruit woods, maple, or pecan will also taste great with these pork chops.

Step 2

Drizzle olive oil on all sides of the pork chops.

Step 3

Evenly season pork chops on all sides with my sweet rub. The thicker your chops are, the more liberally you can season.

Step 4

Place the chops on the smoker, close the lid, and cook until the internal temperature of the chops reads 145 degrees F. This process can take anywhere from 60-90 minutes, depending on how thick your pork chops are.

Step 5

Remove the chops from the smoker. Place on a plate and tent with foil. Allow to rest for 5-10 minutes. Serve hot as-is or with a side of applesauce or your favorite BBQ sauce.
