1. Preheat oven to 300F (150C).

2. In a small bowl, combine seasoning ingredients: brown sugar, salt, smoked paprika, mustard, cumin, and pepper. Rub seasoning all over the sides of the pork chops.

3. Heat a cast iron pot or skillet over medium heat, add oil and marinate the pork for about 2 minutes on each side.

4. Remove the pork from the pot. Put vinegar, onions, garlic and ketchup in a pot and place the pork on top. Pour in the vegetable stock, add fresh thyme and bring the liquid to a boil.

5. Cover the pot and continue cooking in the oven for about 3-4 hours.
