Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    Remember, you don't need to season the pork chops because they're smoked and have already been seasoned with salt.
  • tip 2
    You can use center cut chops if you like and condiment with only a little bit of salt and pepper so you don't change the taste of the sauce.
  • tip 3
    You can also serve the sauce over grilled chicken or salmon.
