When it’s time to fire up the grill and bring big flavour to the table, these Hot Boss BBQ Pork Chops don’t just show up — they show out. Thick-cut, juicy, and kissed by the flame, these chops are seasoned to perfection and finished with a heavy-handed slather of Hot Boss Original Sauce — the bold, smoky-sweet, tangy sauce that brings real heat and a whole lot of personality.
This isn’t your average backyard BBQ. This is for the flavour hunters. The heat seekers. The grill warriors who don’t settle for dry or bland. The Hot Boss Original Sauce brings a rich balance of molasses, spice, smoke, and just enough kick to make your taste buds sit up straight. It hugs every inch of those pork chops like it’s got something to prove — and it does.
Whether you're grilling over open flame, searing on a cast iron, or baking low and slow, these pork chops hold their own. Juicy on the inside, charred and caramelized on the outside, and dripping in that signature Hot Boss shine, they’re the kind of meal that gets talked about long after the plates are cleared.
INGREDIENTS:
For the pork chops: 2 thick-cut bone-in or boneless pork chops 1 tbsp olive oil Salt & pepper to taste 1 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp smoked paprika ½ tsp onion powder ½ tsp chilli powder (optional for extra kick) 2 tbsp Hot Boss Original Sauce ½ cup ketchup 2 tbsp brown sugar 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar 1 tbsp molasses or honey 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce 1 tsp smoked paprika 1 tsp garlic powder ½ tsp onion powder ½ tsp cayenne (adjust for heat) Salt & black pepper to taste Pinch of rosemary A splash of liquid smoke
METHOD:
Make the sauce: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine all sauce ingredients. Stir well and simmer for 5–7 minutes until thick and glossy. Taste and adjust heat/sweetness if needed. Set aside. 2. Prep the pork chops: Pat the chops dry with paper towels. Rub them with olive oil, then season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, rosemary and chilli powder. Let them sit at room temp for 20 minutes (optional but helps even cooking). 3. Grill or pan-sear: Grill method: Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill chops 4–5 mins per side depending on thickness, until internal temp hits 145°F (63°C). Pan method: Heat a cast iron skillet on medium-high. Sear chops 4–5 mins per side, then lower heat and cook through. 4. Sauce it up: In the final 2 minutes of cooking, brush Hot Boss Original Sauce generously on both sides. Let it caramelize slightly — that sticky glaze is key. 5. Rest & serve: Remove chops from heat and let them rest for 5 minutes. Serve with extra sauce on the side if you're feeling wild. Serve Suggestions: Grilled corn or street corn | Baked beans or mac & cheese | Slaw with a vinegar kick | A cold beer or iced tea on the side..
