April 16, 2012 Smoked Pork chops with Braised Cabbage

April 16, 2012 Smoked Pork chops with Braised Cabbage

Another simple a meal.  I had purchased two smoked pork chops at Pro’s Market on Thursday, ($3.99/lb.) and we had a half head of green cabbage in the fridge in the garage.

I shredded the cabbage and put it in a large skillet with olive oil and a generous sprinkling of powdered cumin (comino), 1/3 cup of chopped onion, and a couple of  cloves of garlic and sautéed it until it collapsed and then Suzette took over and added apple cider vinegar and sugar to taste.   I cleaned a pineapple and sliced it into ½ inch slices.  The smoked chops were already cooked so they only needed to be heated.  Suzette put a tbsp. of olive oil in a lage skillet with a couple of cloves of garlic and the pineapple slices and we sautéed them all together.  Then we served the cabbage and pork chops and braised pineapple slice and drank a Josephina syrah Rose from California (Trader Joe’s $4.99).

A simple and satisfying meal.

I ate a bowl of chocolate ice cream later in the evening with Land O Lakes whipped cream and Hershey’s chocolate syrup and a splash of Orange liquor.

Bon Appétit
