I made three boneless chops for dinner with roasted sweet potatoes. The pork chops were fabulous. My husband didn’t like a lot of the sauce on his but he does not care for sweets either. I loved the sauce. The next day bee shredded the leftover pork chop with a little bit of sauce and my husband LOVED it!!!! He said you can make this anytime you want. He said we should make in the summer and shred for pulled pork sliders and take to our next BBQ. I also cook for my mom and this will be something I can easily take over at lunch to her house and let cook for when she is ready for dinner.
I have to try this recipe, I have been craving pork chops and applesauce for a while now.
