There are many ways to cook a good pork chop. The key is knowing how to not overcook your pork. I’m going to show you how to fix tender and perfectly seasoned broiled pork chops. I tested this recipe with both boneless chops and bone-in pork chops. I can tell you without a doubt that the bone-in pork chops are best cooked under the broiler. Just a few minutes prep and then a relatively short amount of broiling time yields mouth-watering pork chops your whole family will enjoy.

How to Broil Pork Chops

Mix together the dry rub ingredients and evenly sprinkle both sides of the chops with the rub. Line the sheet pan with foil. Place the cooling rack on top of the pan – this allows for heat circulation on all sides of the pork chops. Place the oven rack in the upper third of the oven. Preheat the oven to BROIL (this is 500 degrees F in most ovens). Place the pork chops on top of the cooling rack in the prepared sheet pan. Broil the pork chops, flipping once halfway through cooking time. Allow the pork chops to rest for three minutes before serving.

Cooking Guide for Broiled Pork Chops

A blush of pink is nothing to fear in your cooked pork chops. The USDA recommends cooking pork to an internal temperature of 145 degrees F, followed by a three minute rest, before cutting into the pork. This temperature ensures the most flavorful and tender eating experience with your pork chops. The size of your chops determines how long they should be broiled –

  • Smaller chops should take 4-5 minutes per side
  • 3/4 inch chops should take 7-8 minutes per side
  • 1 inch or more chops should take 8-10 minutes per side

    My husband loves pork chops, but I never cook them. I am going to have to try this method, as it looks really simple.

    I haven’t ever fully cooked meat under the broiler. I have five possible positions for the racks in my oven. Would I use the top position? The next one down is on the bottom edge of the top third. Am I over-thinking? I want pork chops for dinner. 🙂

      Sorry for the late reply. The top position is for broiling. But, if I’m making really thick pork chops, I’ll use the next one down. You’re not over-thinking. Ovens are so different. If your broiler runs hot, it makes sense to use the next one down which is at the bottom edge of the top third.

    My parchment paper says not to use under broiler, so I used aluminum foil.

        Oh gosh, I’m sorry this happened. I’m approving this so others know the risk. Definitely make sure your pan and paper are not too close to the heating element at the top. Also, some ovens run hotter than others. You can always oil a sheet pan to prevent sticking and skip the parchment paper altogether. Or use an oven safe cooking rack on top of a sheet pan and also skip the paper.

    I’m going to try this recipe using the two-piece broiler pan that came with my oven. Hopefully, it will turn out the same.

      It should work. I’d make sure to oil the top of the broiler pan, if it’s not non-stick. Come back and let me know!

    I am making boneless pork chops. Would 5 minutes per side be about right?

      It should be. And always check the temperature with a thermometer to be sure! 145 degrees F is safe for pork, with a 3-minute rest before eating.

    The instructions were easy to follow as I never really broiled foods.( never sure which level to use.). Could I use just a salt , pepper and maybe garlic as a rub. I think the smoked paprika was a bit strong for me. My husband loved it and found it tender and moist. I dropped a level after 4 minutes or so as it looked like it was charing to fast.
    They were about 1 inch with bone. I now have a bit more confidence in trying again. Thank you.

      You can customize the seasonings however you would like. I think garlic would be a great substitute. Thanks for taking the time to rate and comment!
