Easy Smoked Pork Chops Recipes

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:

• Preheat the smoker to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Add wood chips according to manufacturer's directions.

• In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the rice and saute until it is light brown, about 5 minutes.
• Spread the rice in a 9- by 13- by 2-inch casserole. Sprinkle the pork chops with salt and arrange them on top of the rice. Pour the broth and 2/3 cup water over the chops. Spread the onion rings over the chops and sprinkle them with the pepper. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake until the pork chops are tender, about 45 minutes.
• Change the oven to broil, add a bit more broth if the rice is dry and return the dish to the oven for a couple of minutes until the pork is browned.
