Early Autumn Smoked Pork Chops Recipes

Steps:

• Combine ketchup, soy sauce, sugar, strawberry jelly, horseradish, tomato paste, butter, oil, vinegar, salt, black pepper, and paprika together in a saucepan over low heat; cook and stir until marinade is smooth, about 5 minutes.
• Place pork chops in a bowl; add marinade. Marinate pork chops in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Remove pork chops from marinade, reserving the extra marinade.
• Light charcoals in the grill and add several bags of fall leaves throughout getting the coals ready for grilling.
• Place pork chops on the grill when the coals are about halfway ashed over. Baste pork chops with marinade and flip pork chops. Cover grill with lid so smoke from the leaves can permeate the pork chops. Cook until pork is slightly pink in the center, 20 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat an electric smoker n to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C). Add water and smoking chips according to manufacturer's instructions.
• Pat each chop dry with paper towels, then brush 1/2 teaspoon olive oil over both sides of each chop. Sprinkle dry rub over both sides and rub over the surface of each chop.
• When wisps of smoke are seen from the smoker, place chops directly on the smoker racks. Close the door and smoke for 45 minutes to 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center, near the bone, should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Remove from the smoker and let rest, tented with foil, for 10 minutes.

Steps:

• HEAT oil in skillet. Cook chops 10 minute or until browned.
• ADD soup, apple juice, mustard, honey and black pepper. Heat to a boil. Cover and cook over low heat 5 minute or until chops are done. Serve with noodles.
