LMAO, when it comes to Cheech and Chong I get serious lulz from 'Ralph and Herbie', 'Sister Mary Elephant', 'Sgt. Stendenko' and so many more.

Thank you Jeff, the stuffing really made these chops.
I like my variety too, try to keep it from getting boring.
My wife and MiL don't experiment or try new recipes too often, so I have to.

They sound like my wife. But I'm more a flounderer in the kitchen.
Stuff I like and make nobody wants to try. :(

You should try getting my two youngest kids to eat something new.
Ages 9 and 12.... Grrrrrr!
I just baked two pans of a new dessert, Apple Cinnamon Strudel Cake.
What do I get? While making a face/sneer, "What' that stuff? What's in it? Why'd you make that?"
Finally get them to try it, now it's half gone.

Hey, thanks John.
Yeah, I cook for seven people, five adults and two sassy midgets.
And I like my leftovers too, Mmmmm good.

My prior recipe on the Smashed Taters were boiled in water and oven baked.
I followed @zippy12 's recipe using the chicken broth and liked it.
And smoking them too, they took on a pretty intense smoke flavor.
I'd suggest limiting the smoke on them.
Really good with some roasted garlic or sour cream and bacon.

Looks like I missed this somehow chili! Been a bit busy with our fattie contest and then the clean up.

Looks awesome! I’d eat that once a week! Wife hates pork chops so I don’t eat them as much as I’d like to! But I might try this on my own!

Fine job,
Scott

Thank you for the compliment and Like Scott, much appreciated.

How'd the Fattie Contest go, am I missing seeing a thread on it?
Bet there was some great creativity, I can only imagine the eats were excellent.

 

[hillbillyrkstr]

Not a problem chili! I love stuffed chops & those look top notch!

Fattie Contest was really good! I put up a post Monday I believe. Over 20 fatties total and some of the best briskets I’ve ever made. Went really well. Thanks for asking. Some unreal fatties I’ve never seen before. Search ”Fattie 2018” whenever you get a minute. I think you’ll appreciate some of the pics.

HECK YEAH, Chile! Noob question for you: How long and at what (approx) temp did you smoke those delicious-looking stuffed chops?

Also, thanks for the awesome sounding cauliflower recipe!

Thanks, glad you like it.

Pork chops cook fast so I try to keep the temp down (200°-225°) so as to get a full hour and half (1.5hrs) or more of smoke.
Internal Temp is everything when it comes to lean pork, I don't want to go any higher than an IT of 120° in the smoker so I can finish to 140°-145° on a scorching hot grill.
For these monstrously thick chops cooking time averages 1.5-1.75 hours smoke and 5-10 minutes per side on the grill.

The cauliflower was good, I liked it but like I said before, most of the family found the flavors too strange/exotic.
I added salt to mine and it seemed to smooth out or bring balance to the flavors.
I may do these again but put them on skewers and roast them on the grill, a tiny bit more like actual Tandoori cooking.
