Well, this is not BBQ but it sure was good. One of my twins is headed back to IU for the summer to work and she wanted a home-cooked meal before being relegated to the harsh realities of campus food! :) This is fried pork chops, butter-steamed broccoli, corn on the cob, and garlic smashed potatoes.

Thanks for the kind remarks everybody! :-D

AlbuQue, nothin' special about the broccoli. Instead of just water in my sautee pan at I add some butter to it - 50/50 split. It just gives the broccoli a nicer flavor. I also add some onion powder and italian seasoning. It always comes out great!

Thanks! :-D

The chops are way easy. They were marinated in olive oil, fresh garlic, salt and pepper for about 3 hours. Then dredged in flour seasoned with onion powder, garlic powder and black pepper. Deep fried in a cast iron skillet and they were good to go. :-D
