Quick-and-Easy Smoked Pork Chops

Heat butter or oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Add the pork chops and warm 4 to 5 minutes per side or until lightly golden.

Serve immediately.

Oil the grill grate and heat the grill to medium.

Place the pork chops 5 to 7 inches from the heat source. Cook 5 minutes per side turning only once. If thicker than 1/2 inch, give the chops 7 minutes per side. When the weather doesn't allow for grilling, use the oven broiler on high, and heat up the chops for 5 to 7 minutes per side depending on the thickness of the chop.

Serve immediately.

Preheat the oven to 350 F.

Place an oven-proof skillet on the stovetop on medium heat. Brown one side of the pork chops, cooking for 3 to 4 minutes.

Flip the chops over and place the skillet in the oven. Roast for 20 minutes.

Serve immediately.
