I made the rub ahead of time and let it sit on the chops in the fridge most of the day. The only thing I'd do differently would be to reduce the cooking time just a tad, since my chops turned out just slightly on the dry side.

Made these for dinner tonight and they were very tender and the sauce was very tasty!

Made this for the first time last night and it was a big hit with the family. Delicious, tender chops, great flavor and very easy to put together. After adding the rub to the chops, I did leave them refrigerated for about 4 hours since it was too early to start dinner at that point. I think it just made them that much better. I did sear them in a cast iron skillet first and then pop that into the oven to finish cooking, finishing off with the glaze. Excellent.

These were delicious! The spices were just right and the sauce was awesome. Since I was making 4 large chops, I quadrupled the sauce to have extra sauce to dip the chops in. I cooked for the time specified and they were perfect.

A quick and easy recipe. So delicious. My family asked me to make it again plus asked if I could try the sauce on chicken or salmon. Took note of other reviews...since I was making 3 very large pork chops...made double the sauce...coated the pork chops just the right amount. The meat was done in 20 minutes and it was perfect. Will be making this meal again...soon!

These are simple and delicious to put together. My 11 year old daughter requested this recipe. I made before Christmas and she loved them. Tonight I said "what am I going to make with these pork chops?" She immediately said "that maple recipe!". I used boneless chops and doubled the ingredients for the amount of chops I had.

Just made this tonight and it was delicious. Served it with a side of cinnamon and sugar roasted sweet potatoes and apples. Great combination.

this was easy and pretty tasty. I think I might double the glaze next time to make the chops a bit saucier.

These were good but I think my family would like them better if a omitted the cinnamon. Also follow the bake times because I added 5 min to 20 min bake time and it overbaked them.
