I am going to break in my new SnS. I have 2 nice pork chops and a pork steak, both bone in. What internal temp should I shoot for before putting some color on them over direct heat? I have never cooked chops outside and would like to keep them as juicy as possible.

You can about use the same internal temperature as medium rare beef steak. This was according to a BBQ Boot Camp I attended 2 years ago, presented annually by the Meat and Animal Science Deptartments at NDSU (North Dakota State University's) web [email protected]
According to my BBQ Book the recommended Grilling Temp of pork steak and chops should be 145*f - 150*f with a 5 min rest before serving. They always toot the temperature from the edge of the steak or chop probing to the center, claim it gave more correct readings.
I hope this helps a little, if you don't have one get a magnetic temperature guide for your grill from Amazing Ribs! I will quit with this friendly suggestion, if they look done they probably are! Dan 701-200-2319

Agree with smarkley . Just SnS'ed some pork chops night before last. I used roughly half a chimney of used coals leftover from previous cook. Placed starter cube in there and piled coals around it. This time I cooked at 225ish, usually I like to do pork chops higher at 325, using the hot & fast lighting technique in the lighting instructions on the website.
Sometimes I sear sometimes I don't with pork chops. I you want to sear, start at 10-15 deg before target temp. Take them off at 140-145, I don't rest any more than what naturally happens carrying them to the table and rounding the family up. In my house w/ 3 little kids this is a t least a 5 min ordeal.
For the record, here's Meathead's USDA Food Safety Inspection Service chart for beef,/lamb/pork from this page, showing minutes needed to pasteurize meat at a given temp: (This is a 7D kill rate, 10 to the 7th power, or one cell in 10,000,000)
Temp F (C) ..........................................Time130 (54.4) 121 minutes 135 (57.2) 37 minutes 140 (60.0) 12 minutes 145 (62.8) 4 minutes 150 (65.6) 72 seconds 155 (68.3) 23 seconds 158 (70.0) 0 seconds Last edited by Huskee; August 20, 2015, 02:55 PM.

Checked the chart and went to 130 internal before moving over the coals. I lit the small Weber chimney and waited 15 minutes or so before dumping into the SnS along with 2 cups of water. Meat was placed (w/o foil underneath, I'm a dope) and temp after lid placement was 227 with the both vents at 1/4. I nudged it up to 240 and left it there. Chops were removed at 145 and were very moist as was the pork steak. All were dusted with Pork Stank from Spicesinc.com and then sauced with Bone Suckin Sauce. A big thanks to all for the help.

Pork Stank rub, Munch ? Sounds unappetizing to me. I think I'll stick with MMR.
However, your photos make that pork look mighty tasty! Looks like a perfect cook. Congrats!

I agree... Not the name I would have gone with. It is a great rub with lots of depth flavor wise. I like grains of paradise, which it contains. Read about it here http://www.spicesinc.com/p-1131-pork-stank.aspxLast edited by Munch; August 20, 2015, 07:22 PM.
