Mojo is another word for magic and my buddy Jay couldn’t have captured it any better with his bbq rub. I’m using his BBQ Magic Rub on some “Mojo Pork Chops” using some Thick Cut Pork Chops for this recipe.

Cooking Instructions

Season Bone-In Pork Loin Chops (4) with Barbecue Rub (4 Tbsp) on all sides and rest for 30 minutes.

Prepare Drum Smoker for indirect cooking at 275 degrees F (140 degrees C). Add one chunk of cherry wood for smoke flavor.

Place chops directly on grill grate and smoke until internal temp reaches 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) turning halfway through the cooking process.

In a small pot, melt Butter (1 Tbsp) and sauté Onions (2 Tbsp) and Garlic (3 cloves) for 2-3 minutes until soft. Add Brown Sugar (1 cup) and Pineapple Juice (1/2 cup) and bring to a slight boil.

Add Whiskey (4 Tbsp) and cook at a low boil for 4-5 minutes to evaporate the alcohol. Add Barbecue Sauce (1 cup) and continue to cook until mixture reduces about 10 minutes stirring occasionally.

Brush glaze over chops and continue to cook until final internal temperature of 145 degrees F (62 degrees C).

Rest chops for 5-10 minutes and serve with additional glaze for dipping.
