First off, the main dish is pork chops. I should make sure to include that in there because it's the star of the show. Then, the sides are important too—applesauce adds a nice texture and flavor contrast.

Looking at the flavors mentioned: maple, whiskey, applewood smoke, caramelized onions, garlic butter. These all sound appealing and point towards a rich, flavorful dish. I should use keywords like "flavorful," "rich," "savorable" to attract the right audience.

SEO-wise, including relevant keywords is key. Words that people might search for when looking for similar recipes would be good—maybe things like "maple glazed pork chops recipe," "whiskey buttered applesauce recipe," or "smoky flavor combo."
