Pork chops can be smoked quite well...
One ofmy faborite meals, which is easy to make in my little stovetop
smoker, is smoked pork chops and potatos.
Start with a good rub for the chops. If you have a stovetop smoker,
arrange the rubbed chops on one side. Slice potatoesa bout 1/2"
thick (with skins). Dredge them in a mixture of extra virgin olive
oil, cayenne pepper, italian seasoning mixture, and a smidge of
coarsly ground sea salt. Make a loose "pyramid" out of the potatoes
on the other side, making sure to leave a decent amount of space
between them to allow smoke to waft amongst them. Hot smoke until
the pork is done - in my little stovetop smoker, it takes about 90
minutes.
Smother the chops in Jim's Smokin' Chipotle (which I used to get at
Atlas - :( ), close the lid on the smoker and continue for about
5-10 minutes to get the sauce nice and "stuck"....
Yum.
