PORK CHOPS WITH APPLES
These moist tender chops get delicious flavor from Dijon mustard, onions and apple slices. Or try replacing the apples with pineapple rings for an appealing variation. I like to serve mashed sweet potatoes with this main course, along with a simple salad.

SMOKED PORK CHOPS WITH APPLES
I was looking for something new to do with some smoked pork chops and I found a recipe on cooks.com that I altered slightly. The original called for cranberry-apple drink rather than cider. The glaze never really thickened for me, but it the chops were still delicious. I used MacIntosh apples, unpeeled. My kids and husband cleaned their plates and my husband has already requested that I make it again.

SMOKED PORK CHOPS WITH PINEAPPLE
If you can't find smoked pork chops just use the bone-in porkchops. These are great served with mashed potatoes or white rice. Seems like a lot of work, from stove top to oven, but they're great.

Tips:
- Choose the right pork chops. Look for chops that are at least 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will help ensure that they stay juicy and flavorful during cooking.
- Season the pork chops liberally. Use a combination of salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a marinade to the chops for extra flavor.
- Cook the pork chops over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from drying out. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chops; they are done when they reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the pork chops rest before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making them more tender and flavorful.
- Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides. Some popular choices include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and applesauce.
