Cooking Pork Chops On Traeger

Traeger Grilled Pork Chops are a perfect way to use those amazing bone-in thick-cut pork chops you find. Keep them tender and juicy and full of flavor by utilizing your pellet grill and adding some smoke to these beautiful cuts of meat!

Traeger Grilled Pork Chops

Juicy grilled tender pork chops used to be a thing that only existed in commercials and my dreams — but not anymore.

With a pellet grill and high-quality pork chops, you can have the best of both worlds and you can stop eating leathery, touch pork chops and start eating these. Because they are amazing.

We picked up these thick cut bone-in pork chops recently, and they were just screaming for Traeger treatment. You can definitely cook these on another kind of grill as well, but you won't get as much of the delicious smoky flavor as you will if you are grilling with wood!

This smoked pork chop recipe is not only going to have you coming back for seconds, but you'll be adding this to your rotation all grilling-season long.

Speaking of your rotation, I've got a few more you're going to want to add to that too.

How to make pork chops on the pellet grill

We threw these on the grill after a healthy dose of our BBQ Rub along with my perfect grilled asparagus. They grill at 450° for about 6 minutes a side, or until the internal temp reaches 145°. That makes this a perfect weeknight dinner that comes together really fast, and the whole family will love.

What kind of grilling do you like to do?

Do you charcoal grill? Gas grill? Have you tried a smoker or pellet grill?

We've tried all of the above besides the actual smoker so far, but honestly, I'm not sure we'll even need to go that route. We've gotten some pretty amazing smoke rings from the pellet grill, so I don't really see a need for another piece of gear at this moment.

Of course, I'm kind of a gear freak so I'm sure we'll end up with some fun new toys before long.
