Pat chops dry with a paper towel and liberally coat all sides with BBQ Rub. Let chops sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
In a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and heat until shimmering.
Add chops to the hot skillet and cook for 7 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side for 7 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 140ºF.
Remove chops to a plate to rest.
In the same skillet, increase heat to medium-high. Stir in onions and apples.
Cook for 4 minutes and add garlic. Continue to cook, stirring, being careful not to burn garlic (reduce heat if necessary).

Remove skillet from heat and stir in butter.
Season to taste with additional BBQ Rub. Return pork to skillet.
