Ingredients:
4 to 6 thick-cut pork loin chops
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 teaspoon of onion powder
1 teaspoon of garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoons of smoked paprika
1 to 2 tablespoons of honey
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Seasoning salt, to taste
Instructions:
Begin by preheating your grill to ensure it reaches the optimal temperature for cooking.
Cut the pork loin chops into three equal pieces lengthwise to create strips.
In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 1/2 teaspoons of smoked paprika, and 1 to 2 tablespoons of honey. Mix well to create a flavorful marinade.
Using a BBQ brush, generously coat each pork strip with the marinade on all sides. Then sprinkle the desired amount of freshly ground black pepper and seasoning salt to taste.
Place the pork strips on the hot grill and cook them over direct medium-high heat. Remember to flip the strips as needed to ensure even cooking. Cook for approximately 5 to 7 minutes per side, or until the pork is fully cooked.
Serve the grilled pork strips alongside classic sides such as potato salad and baked beans for a complete and satisfying meal.
I wish you and your loved ones a safe and enjoyable Fourth of July celebration filled with delicious food and good company!
