Baked BBQ Pork Chops are tender boneless chops baked under a sweet honey barbecue glaze in one dish. Stir six pantry ingredients together, pour the glaze over the chops, cover, and bake. A quick broil at the end gives them a sticky, caramelized top. Dinner in about 35 minutes.
1tablespoon parsleyoptional, freshly chopped for garnish
Instructions
Prep
Preheat the oven to 375º Fahrenheit. Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Stir the BBQ sauce, honey, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and black pepper together in a medium bowl until smooth.
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and sprinkle both sides with the salt.
Arrange the chops in a single layer in the dish. Pour the glaze over them and turn to coat.
Bake
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer in the thickest chop reads 140º Fahrenheit.
Broil and Serve
Remove the foil and switch the oven to broil. Broil for 2 to 3 minutes, until the glaze bubbles and the chops read 145º Fahrenheit. Watch closely.
Rest the chops in the dish for 5 minutes. Spoon the glaze over the chops and sprinkle with parsley before serving.
Notes
REST TIME
The 5-minute rest is not included in the total time.
CHOP THICKNESS - For ¾-inch chops, start checking at 15 minutes. For ½-inch chops, start checking at 12 minutes. Bone-in chops need about 5 minutes longer.
FOOD SAFETY
USDA guidance for pork chops is 145º Fahrenheit measured while the chops are still in the oven, followed by a 3-minute rest. The 5-minute rest here covers it.
