SKILLET BARBECUED PORK CHOPS

This recipe was cut from the label on a can of Hunt's Tomato Sauce when I was a child.

2 lbs (4 to 6 chops) pork chops

1 tablesp. Wesson, pure vegetable oil

1/3 cup chopped celery

2 tablesp. brown sugar

2 tablesp. lemon juice

1/2 teasp. dry mustard

1/2 teasp. salt

1/8 teasp. pepper

2 8-oz. cans Hunt's Tomato Sauce

In a large skillet with a tight-fitting lid, brown chops in Wesson oil over medium heat, approximately 5 minutes on each side. Pour off excess fat. Sprinkle celery, brown sugar, lemon juice, and seasonings evenly over chops. Pour the tomato sauce over all. Cover and simmer over low heat 1 hour, or until chops are tender.
