- In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder and cayenne. Sprinkle spice mixture evenly over pork chops, then rub it into both sides of chops.
- Place chops on high-heat section of grill and sear for about 3 minutes per side; transfer to medium-heat section and continue cooking, turning periodically, for another 5 to 8 minutes or until internal temperature in thickest part of chop reaches 145 degrees. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, into a saucepan over medium heat, add all Vanilla Blueberry Balsamic Sauce ingredients. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often, until blueberries pop and release their juices. Remove from heat and serve warm over chops.
