Steps:
- Season both sides of pork chops with garlic powder, sage, thyme, salt and pepper.
- Melt 2 tbs. butter in a large skillet over medium heat, evenly coating the bottom of the skillet.
- Increase heat to medium-high. Cook both sides of chops for 10-15 minutes until lightly browned. (Note: It is okay if the chops are not completely done, as there is more cooking time to come.).
- Push chops to outside edges of skillet. Melt the remaining 1 tbs. butter in the center of the skillet and add onions to the center of the skillet, sprinkling with sugar.
- Replace skillet cover and cook for 10 minutes, frequently tossing and stirring onions with a spatula. Onions are caramelized when tender and medium-brown in color. My husband prefers cooking them until slightly burned, as the flavor intensifies. (Note: Don't forget to watch your chops to make sure they don't burn.).
- Check chops for doneness before serving. They will be done when a fork piercing the thickest part of the chop draws clear juice. If the juice is pink, cook chops a bit longer until done. (Note: Make sure to watch onions, so they don't burn.).
- Serve pork chops with caramelized onions piled on top.

Steps:
- Preheat a smoker or gas grill with a smoker box for cooking with indirect heat to about 225 degrees F. Add desired smoke wood or pellets to the smoker or gas grill and wait until smoke appears. If using a gas grill with indirect heat, keep the heat no higher than 250 degrees F.
- Mix together the turbinado sugar, salt, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg and ginger in a medium bowl. Sprinkle the pork generously on all sides with this spice mixture. Place the chops directly on the grates over indirect heat and cook until the internal temperature reaches 115 degrees F, 1 to 2 hours, depending on the thickness of the pork chops. Transfer the pork chops to a sheet tray. Turn the heat up on the smoker or gas grill to high.
- Place the pork chops on the grill grates over direct heat to sear until nicely charred and dark brown or until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
- Let rest 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Remove the bone from the chop if desired. Top with the Compote and try to keep the masses away!
- Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring frequently, until translucent, 10 to 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to low. Add the brown sugar and salt and continue cooking until the onions turn golden brown, about 10 more minutes.
- Add the about half of the apples and the apple cider vinegar and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat. Top with the remaining diced apples and sliced chives. Serve warm.
Tips:
- Choose thick-cut pork chops for best results.
