Southern Smothered Pork Chops

Smothered dishes are a hallmark of Southern and Creole cooking, where meat is browned and then slowly simmered in a flavorful gravy until tender. Smothered pork chops became a beloved Sunday dinner staple throughout the American South, prized for turning an inexpensive cut into a rich, comforting meal.
