Smoked Pork Chops With Maple Glaze

• 2 smoked pork chops, bone-in, 1/2 inch thick
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
• 1/4 cup maple syrup (real or imitation)
• 1/4 cup apple juice
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 1/4 teaspoon sage, dried, ground
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground

1. In a medium skillet (cast iron preferred), heat oil over medium-high heat until glistening.
2. Season both sides of pork chops with 1/8 teaspoons black pepper. Brown in hot oil for 5-8 minutes on each side or until heated through (and nicely browned).
3. Meanwhile in a small saucepan, whisk together remaining ingredients. Cook over medium heat until thickened and bubbly.
4. Once pork chops are browned, remove to a serving platter (or individual plates). Spoon maple glaze evenly over both and serve.
