Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and cook until browned on the outside, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Add another tablespoon of butter and the thyme, tilting the pan to swirl the butter around the chops. Continue cooking, spooning the butter over the chops, until the pork is cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer the pork to the plate with the bacon.
