Ingredients

Seasoning Rub

2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons paprika sweet or smoked*
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper

Remaining Ingredients

4 bone-in pork chops about 1 to 1¼ inches thick
3 tablespoons butter

Instructions

Let pork chops come to room temperature for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 425° F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
4 bone-in pork chops
Combine all seasoning rub ingredients (brown sugar, paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, dried thyme, onion powder, salt and black pepper) in a small bowl. Whisk or stir until well blended.
2 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 teaspoons paprika, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, ½ teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Rub seasonings over all sides of pork chops and place on the prepared baking sheet. Cut the butter into 4 thin "pats" and place one pat of butter on top of each pork chop.
3 tablespoons butter
Bake for 18-25 minutes, until an instant read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the pork chops not touching the bone registers 145° F. The cook time will depend on the thickness of the pork chops. Be careful not to overcook the pork chops or they may dry out.
Let pork chops rest for 5 minutes and then serve.

Notes
