Instructions

Add the seasonings to a large bowl and whisk them together to evenly combine. Set aside.
2 tsp garlic powder, 2 tsp onion powder, 2 1/2 tsp ground mustard, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp pepper, 1/8 tsp chili powder
Pat the pork chops dry using paper towels, then brush both sides of each chop evenly with olive oil.
1 lb boneless pork chops, 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Season both sides of each pork chop evenly with the seasoning mixture, pressing it in to adhere as needed. Set the prepared chops aside.
Preheat your smoker to 225℉.
Using tongs transfer the prepared pork chops directly to the rack of the smoker. Smoke them for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature measures 160° in the thickest part of the meat.
Transfer the pork chops to a serving platter and tent with aluminum foil. Let them rest for 10 minutes.
Serve the pork chops warm with your favorite sides, and enjoy!

Notes

Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness.
You can adjust the seasoning to suit your tastes.
Any wood that you would use to smoke pulled pork would also work well to smoke pork chops. For a mild, sweet flavor go for fruit woods like apple or cherry wood. If you want a deeper flavor, hickory or mesquite both work well.
