Steps:
- Combine 1/2 cup olive oil and vegetable oil in a measuring cup. Combine 2 tablespoons marjoram, Dijon mustard, garlic, and vinegar in a medium bowl. Slowly whisk oil mixture into herb mixture until creamy. Season to taste with pepper. Transfer about 1/4 cup dressing to a small bowl; cover and chill.
- Season pork chops with 4 teaspoons salt. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag; pour remaining dressing over, spreading evenly to distribute. Seal bag; chill for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours.
- Cook beans in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, 3-5 minutes. Drain; transfer to a large bowl of ice water to chill. Drain beans; pat dry. Transfer beans, remaining 1 tablespoon marjoram, and shallot to a medium bowl; toss with enough reserved dressing to coat and season with salt and pepper.
- Build a medium fire in a charcoal grill, or heat a gas grill to medium-high. Remove pork chops from bag, scraping off excess dressing. Grill chops, turning occasionally on all sides, until browned and cooked through, about 20 minutes total. (Be sure to cook thick chops on the edges, too, and melt the thin strips of white fat; they'll cook more evenly.)
- Place peaches in a medium bowl; drizzle with some olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Toss to coat. Grill peaches, cut side down, until they begin to soften and char, 4-6 minutes. Transfer pork and peaches to a cutting board; let pork rest for 10 minutes.

Steps:
- 1. Cut a slight slit on the curved sides of the pork chops, for them not to curl up while browning them.Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Add olive oil, just to cover the bottom of a large skillet. Heat oil on high, fit the four pork chops flat in the skillet. Brown the chops on both sides, as much as you can, on high heat, but not burnt. Transfer the chops from the skillet and place them in the bottom of the crock-pot.
- 2. Add the chopped onions to the skillet and sauté until softened, about a minute. Add 2 cups of hot water to the skillet and the baby lima beans. Stir to scrap up all the tasty bits, from the browned pork chops. Transfer ingredients from the skillet to the crock-pot, on top of the pork chops. DO NOT stir. Cover and DO NOT uncover, unless to add more hot water to cover the top of the beans.
- 3. Cook on high for 2 hours. Check the beans by taste, to see if they are tender and the pork chops at the bottom should be tender, also. Don't let the water get below your beans.
- 4. Measure one tablespoon of flour, add the 1/4 cup of cool water. Stir to dissolve, without lumps. Add slowly to the crock-pot and stir gently, to thicken for a sauce texture. Taste sauce for seasoning and add some Tony Cachere's seasoning or whatever seasoning to your taste (celery salt).
- 5. Serve over, a serving of cooked rice.

Add beans, black pepper, and remaining 2 Tbsp. oil, 1 Tbsp. plus 1 tsp. vinegar, and 1 tsp. salt to sauce in skillet.

Steps:
- Place the red beans into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let stand 8 hours to overnight.

- Place the soaked beans into a large pot, and cover with 1/2 inch of water. Stir in the onion, garlic, bay leaf, crab boil, celery salt, and red pepper flakes. Nestle the smoked ham hock deep into the beans. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the beans are mostly tender, about 1 hour.
- Uncover the beans, remove the ham hock, and stir well. Add the tomatoes, if using. Place the pork chops into the pot and cover with beans. Increase the heat to medium, and simmer until the pork chops are no longer pink in the center, the beans are completely tender, and the mixture has thickened a bit, about 20 minutes.

PORK LOIN CHOPS, WITH MUSHROOM GRAVY, AND GREEN BEANS
I threw this dinner together one night with items that I had on hand. It turned out to be a lovely dinner that was appreciated by all. Herbes De Provence is a wonderful spice that can liven up chicken, salad, potatoes, and veggies. It is a staple in my kitchen, and an important ingredient in this recipe, to really liven up the green beans. Please note that, even though this recipe normally serves two, you could easily throw in four pork loin chops. Please enjoy!

PORK CHOPS WITH STUFFING AND GREEN BEANS
As with most of my dishes, this was born of lack of inspiration and sheer laziness. I had a yen for stuffed pork chops but not enough yang to actually make them. I found lots of recipes here for pork chops with stuffing but none with the green bean/onion layers which add moisture & flavor to the dish. Of course, the pan drippings left from browning would be a wonderful gravy starter if you're so inclined. This was an invention which pleased our palates immensely!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350º F.
- Coat an 11"X7" baking dish with cooking spray.
- Season both sides of pork chops with thyme, crushed rosemary & black pepper. **(note - I chose not to add salt as prepackaged stuffing mixes usually have a very high sodium content).
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high flame & add the oil. When hot, add the chops. Brown 3-4 minutes per side.
- Prepare stuffing mix per package directions. Set aside.
- Drain green beans & spread in bottom baking dish. Distribute onion rings evenly atop the green beans.
- When pork chops are browned, arrange them on top of onions.
- Add stuffing mixture to dish, filling in spaces around and between chops.
- Cover loosely with foil & bake 35 minutes. Remove foil & bake another 10 minutes or until meat is no longer pink in the center.
- ** Note - I used thick, boneless chops. If you use thinner ones, adjust bake time accordingly unless you enjoy dry pork!

Tips:
- Choose thick-cut pork chops for a more flavorful and juicy result.

- Season the pork chops generously with salt and pepper before searing.
- Cook the pork chops over medium heat until they are cooked through. This will take about 5-7 minutes per side.
- Add the beans and sauce to the pan with the pork chops and simmer until the beans are heated through. This will take about 15-20 minutes.
- Serve the pork chops and beans over rice or mashed potatoes.
