I've been acquainted with Two Knots long enough to ask this question.
TK have you made this for the head Knot? If not I think you should give it a shot. I made it yesterday accompanied by mashed potatoes and sauerkraut, not like the recipe I'll post in a minute but the straight recipe and it wasn't bad. This version is smoked for a bit then finished. Two man job and I got an idea the head Knot will like it and you will as well.

Gepockelte (German Style Cured Pork Chops)
I’ve been wanting to make this dish for a while. I bought a pork loin and cut off three thick slices. I then hit them with some cure #1 and let them sit in a zip lock for three hours. I then washed them and cold smoked them for an hour with some hickory in the AMNS. Then I put them in a skillet...

I suspect the link in that forum isn't working so here it is.

I made something like it with an Agrodolce sauce.
If you’re game to try it, it’s unbelievably
Delicious. It’s an Italian sauce

For the pork chops:
Sprinkle pork chops with salt/pepper, paprika,
and garlic powder…coat with Agrodolce sauce on
both sides…put in air fryer @400° for 18 minutes
Turning once…the pork chops were delicious and soo
Tender.

My Recipe for Agrodolce sauce
1/2 cup of Balsamic Vinegar
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon thyme
2 cloves whole garlic smashed
Pinch salt
4 Tablespoons honey
4 tablespoons unsalted butter at room temperature.
Put vinegar, garlic, salt and thyme is sauce pot and simmer
for about 4- -5 minutes until reduced by half…remove from stove
and stir in honey and then the butter and mix…remove the garlic,
and coat the pork chops.

That right there looks good enough to eat.

It absolutely does. Head Knot is a lucky guy.
