Pork Chops with Carolina Rub with Stove-Top Barbecue Beans

I got a new cookbook- Cooking Light: The Essential Dinner Tonight Cookbook- and I love it!  Here's a new good recipe from the book.

Pork Chops
Combine 1 each of garlic powder, onion powder, sugar, paprika (I used smoked paprika because I heart it!), chili powder and black pepper along with 1/2 tsp. of salt.  Combine and rub onto pork chops.  Let stand for 10 minutes.

Grill pork chops about 4 minutes, then turn and grill 2 minutes.  Brush with 1 tbsp. barbecue sauce each and grill about 2 more minutes or until done. 


Stove Top Barbecue Beans
Melt 1 tbsp. butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat.  Add 1/2 c. chopped onion and 1 minced garlic clove; saute 3 minutes. 

Stir in 1/3 c. ketchup and 2 tbsp. each of brown sugar, mustard, lemon juice, and soy sauce along with 1 tbsp. chili powder.  Add 2 (15.5 oz) cans of drained and rinsed Great Northern beans.  Cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
