Pork Chops with Pan Apple Sauce

NOTE: A stovetop smoker is the preferred method of cooking for this recipe. But you can use an oven if you don’t have a smoker.

Pour the oil into a skillet and get it screaming hot. It should get shimmery.

Sprinkle the Mrs. Dash on both sides of the pork chops to taste. (I actually used the store brand of this and it is just as good.)

Sear the chops. (I did about 4 minutes on each side.)

Remove the chops from the skillet and pop them in the smoker for 20 minutes (I used hickory chips.) You could also finish them in an oven if you don’t have the smoker. A 350F degree oven for about 10 minutes should work. But really, you should invest in the smoker, it is so good.

Pull them out and set them aside to rest.

Take the pan drippings, the apple sauce, the vinegar and the wine and combine them in a small saucepan. Reduce by half. Salt and pepper to taste.

Plate your chops and pour the sauce over them. It’s so yum.
