Last weekend the hubs and I headed to Lee’s Summit, MO for the Smokin’ on the Summit BBQ event. We had such a great time.  The Smithfield’s Get Grilling America campaign was there, so you can imagine all of the grilling, smoking and basting that was going on.  Pure bliss!

Chatting with some of the amazing competitors and capturing them in action was a treat — and they were of all ages (from kids to retired folks).  Thankfully, it was a beautiful day and our senses were in overload. We left feeling inspired and ready to fire up the grill when we got home.

While I worked on my Greek Pork Chops, the hubs was out preparing for a day of smoking ribs.  Dinner was pretty amazing that night as we enjoyed both the Greek Pork Chops and smoked ribs.

These Greek-inspired pork chops are just that — easy!  Let’s grab our ingredients, heat up the grill and get this par-tay started.  p.s. I picked up my pork chops at my local Walmart, using their on-line Grocery Pick-Up Service.
