How to Make Bacon Wrapped Pork Chops With Bbq Sauce
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Prepare your pork chops: Pat 4 (1-inch thick) pork chops dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and pepper.
- Wrap with bacon: Lay out 8 slices of bacon side by side on a clean work surface. Place a pork chop on top of two overlapping bacon slices.
- Add BBQ sauce: Generously slather both sides of each bacon-wrapped pork chop with 1/4 cup BBQ sauce, ensuring all sides are coated.
- Add Rosemary: Place a small sprig of fresh rosemary on top of each chop.
- Secure the bacon: Wrap the bacon slices tightly around each pork chop, tucking in the ends to secure.
- Prepare the baking pan: Lightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
- Bake: Place the bacon-wrapped pork chops on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the pork chop registers 150°F (65°C).
- Broil (optional): For extra crispy bacon, broil for 1-2 minutes per side, watching carefully to prevent burning.
- Rest: Remove from oven and let the pork chops rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chop.
- Remove rosemary and serve: Remove the rosemary sprigs before serving. Serve immediately with extra BBQ sauce, if desired.
