salt to taste
pepper to taste
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 Tbsp. oil
2-2 1/2 c. ketchup
1/2 c. brown sugar
1 Tbsp. hickory-flavored liquid smoke
1 c. onions, chopped

Season chops with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.  Brown on both sides in oil in skillet.  Drain.
Combine ketchup, brown sugar, and liquid smoke in bowl.
Place onions in slow cooker.  Dip browned pork chops in sauce mixture and place on onions.  Pour remaining sauce over chops.

Makes a great meal served with cole slaw and steak fries.
