Marcia Ball’s Mother’s Smothered Pork Chops

Marcia Ball’s Mother’s Smothered Pork Chops
Found http://www.offbeat.com/gravy/in-the-kitchen-with-marcia/

8 thin-cut pork chops
salt
black pepper
¼ cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons sugar
1 yellow onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1 tablespoon flour

Season pork chops with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a heavy pot, cast-iron or Magnalite Dutch oven. Add sugar and let it caramelize, “it burns pretty much.” Add pork chops and “flop ’em around.” When thoroughly smeared, add onion and garlic. Fry for a few minutes. Add 1/2 cup water to start the gravy. Dissolve flour in another 1/2 cup water and add to pot. Cover and simmer over low heat for at least 30 minutes, adding more water if necessary. You want a rich—not soupy—gravy.
