Preheat oven to 440 degrees F (227 degrees C). Whisk onion, ketchup, vinegar, honey, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl until barbeque sauce is smooth. Place pork chops on a baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Top each pork chop with 2 tablespoons barbeque sauce. Bake in the preheated oven until pork chops are cooked through, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
Cover the dutch oven and bake the pork chops for 30 minutes. In a separate bowl mix the barbecue sauce and and apple cider together. Using a basting brush, coat the pork chops on both sides and pour the remaining sauce over the chops. Bake the pork chops uncovered for an additional 15 minutes.
