OBIE'S SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS
From the cookbook, "Harlem Really Cooks" by the late Harlem historian and gourmand Sandra Lawrence. "Obie" was a friend of hers who owned a nightclub/restaurant and smothered chops were one of the many specialties made there. The use of pancake mix in lieu of plain flour gives this dish a slight sweetness along with the sugar as well. The only change I made was the addition of mushrooms to the gravy. Serve with recipe #299114 - I hope you like it. And please, do buy the book. *Note: If you don't eat pork for religious or health reasons, turkey chops are a fine substitute.

Steps:
- Season each chop with salt and pepper, then dust with flour. Heat a cast iron skillet just large enough to hold the pork over a medium heat. Add the reserved pork fat and brown the pork chop well-approximately 4 minutes per side. Remove the chops from the pan and set aside. If the pan is dry, add another tablespoon of fat. Add the onions and peppers. Increase the heat to medium high in order to brown the vegetables well. Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and cook, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes. Remove pan from the flame and stir in the hot hock stock until thickened and smooth. Bury the pork chops in the gravy. Cover the skillet and place in a 300 degree oven. Cook 2 hours, or until pork is very tender;
- Collard Greens: Place hock stock in a large sauce pot over a medium high heat. Bring hock stock to a rapid simmer. Pack collards into the stock with the onion and jalapeno. Simmer 2 hours. Season to taste with salt, pepper and malt vinegar.;
- Ham hock stock: Place ham hocks in a stock pot large enough to hold the hocks, leaving 6 inches of free space at the top of the pot. Pour enough cold water over the hocks to cover by 3 inches. Bring to a rapid simmer over a medium high heat. A thick foam will build on the top of the stock. Carefully remove all of the foam. Reduce heat to low and simmer 6 hours. Constantly skim the clear fat that builds at the top of the stock. Reserve the fat for cooking.
SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS
Steps:
- Heat the oil in an 8-quart pot to 350 degrees F.
- Mix salt, pepper, granulated garlic and paprika in a small bowl to make seasoning for pork chops.
- Lightly sprinkle pork chops on both sides with the spice mixture. Dredge pork chops in flour, then shake off any excess flour.
- Place 2 pork chops in preheated oil and fry until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes on each side (depending on thickness of pork chops). Remove pork chops from pot and let drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat with remaining pork chops.
- Drain used oil from pot, but retain flour drippings left over from frying. Add 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup flour to the pot and return to medium heat. Using a whisk or a spoon, stir the flour. Let ingredients brown to a dark toffee color, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and onions and continue to cook, stirring, until onions are fully coated in browned flour. Slowly add 3 to 4 cups water until gravy reaches your desired thickness. Add gravy enhancer to achieve a deep brown color, if desired. Place drained pork chops in gravy. Let simmer, uncovered, for approximately 15 minutes.

Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons butter plus 2 tablespoons oil in each of 2 skillets over medium heat.
- Put the onion and pepper slices in one skillet and cook until browned and caramelized, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the seasoned salt, lemon pepper, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper and 1/2 cup of the flour in a pie plate. Dredge the pork chops in the flour mixture.
- Fry the chops in batches in the other skillet until well browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove the chops from the skillet and set aside.
- To this skillet, add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter and 3 tablespoons flour. Stir and cook until the roux gets some color on it, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the stock a bit at a time, working out all the lumps, then add the cream. Add the onions and peppers, coating them in the sauce.
- Serve with plenty of sauce and the caramelized onions/peppers and accompany with the Smashed Red Potatoes.
- Put the potatoes in a glass or microwavable bowl and microwave according to the manufacturer's instructions, 5 to 10 minutes. Carefully remove the bowl and smash the potatoes with a fork. Add the butter, salt and pepper, then smash again. Cover with a towel until ready to serve.
