Jerk Pork Chops

• 1-2 habanero pepper, seeded and chopped
• 1-2 jalapeno peppers chopped
• 1 small onion, coarsely chopped
• 1 scallion, chopped
• 4-5 garlic clove, thinly sliced
• 1 teaspoon ground allspice
• 3/4 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon Salt
• 1/8 teaspoon Mrs Dash Table Blend
• 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, plus more for brushing
• 1 cup store-bought Kansas City–style barbecue sauce
• 4 pork rib chops (12 ounces each)
• 1/2 cup hickory, pecan or oak chips

1. In a mini food processor, combine the habanero, onion, scallion, garlic, allspice, thyme, ginger, nutmeg and cinnamon. Add salt, Garlic powder and Mrs Dash Table Blend. Process until finely chopped. Add the 1 tablespoon of oil and process to a smooth paste.
2. In a small bowl, whisk 1 tablespoon of the paste with the barbecue sauce. Spread the remaining paste all over the chops and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
3. Light a gas grill. Wrap the wood chips in heavy-duty foil, pierce the packet all over with a skewer and add to the grill. Cover and let the chips begin to smoke, about 5 minutes.
4. Lightly brush the chops with oil and season with salt. Grill the chops, covered, over moderately high heat, turning and shifting the chops occasionally, until they are lightly charred and a meat thermometer inserted nearest the bone registers 140°, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer the chops to a platter and serve with the spiced barbecue sauce on the side.
