The "secret ingredient" in this recipe is the applesauce. When everything's cooked up, you wouldn't know it's in there...yet the taste's just a bit sweeter. My mother and grandmother once ran a beanery for a train crew. That inspired a lot of my cooking. In fact, I adapted this recipe from one of theirs. Luckily for me, my husband likes to eat what I fix as much as I like to cook it! He and I have three children, all now grown, and six grandchildren.

This was excellent! For those who say to leave the applesauce out/too sweet - are they sure they are using unsweeted applesauce because I would not change a thing!

It was great I love the applesauce in it! I love serving applesauce with pork.

Was OK but the applesauce made it a bit sweet. It would be better without it

I use this one for our New Year's Day meal every year. It's always a hit!

applesauce +brown sugar=overkill. This recipe is better without the applesauce

This is a really good recipe but I wanted to cut the fat so I followed the recipe exactly except for using smoked lean pork chops.
