I've had this recipe for over twenty years and love it. Since the children are grown, I now cook just half the recipe for my husband and I. And it's so easy! You'll be in and out of the kitchen in no time. —Ann Rogers, Ocala, Florida

Tip

Keep Onion Handy

I keep a peeled onion in a glass jar in my refrigerator. It’s handy when I need a small amount of chopped onion for a recipe or my husband wants a slice of onion on his hamburger. It stays fresh in the jar, eliminating waste. —Dorothy G., Tewksbury, Massachusetts

meat was tough. Maybe my cut of pork or needed to cook longer. Maybe simmer for 30 minutes?

Agree with the tip to reduce the amount of pepper. I used 1/8 cayenne. I may use 1/8 cayenne and 1/4 black instead of 1/2 tsp. Also, because of the quick cooking time after the veggies are added, they should be finely chopped. The flavor of the rub is excellent! Wonderful blend of spice! I will make in much larger batches and store in the fridge for future use. Yes, I will absolutely make this again! Great recipe Ann! Thanks for submitting!

Quick, easy and SUPER tasty. I may make extra spices for the pork chops and finely chop the vegetables next time.

very delicious!! I will use the 1/8 teaspoon cayeene pepper next time though... my lips are still burning! Pork chops were cooked perfectly! Will most certainly be making this dish again.

Definitely one we'll make again! Next time I'll add more of the onions, green pepper and celery. We're hoping this recipe will taste better the next day.
