I also smoked some pork chops (and finished with a cast iron sear) for Monday’s dinner. I find it to be a very similar experience to a well-cooked steak at a fraction of the price.
My method in case someone is curious:
Heat smoker to 190F
Season pork chops and smoke until ~130F internal (about an hour)
Heat a cast iron on medium high with ample butter. Add a sprig of rosemary to the pan just before quickly searing the pork chops to ~140F internal (or whatever doneness you prefer)
Just pulled some pork chops off the smoker and tomorrow is stir fry some some spicy peppers from the garden.
