OUTSTANDING!!!!!! Great flavor, could cut pork with fork. After reading reviews I doubled sauce to pour over rice. Yummy!

Delicious! Only thing I would do differently is double the sauce. I served the pork over spaghetti and it would have been nice to have enough sauce to coat the pasta.

Incredible Recipe that is easy AND impressive! This has made it into my regular dinner "rotation." I make the rice with coconut milk and it adds a great touch.

This is the most delicious thing I make. My fried foods loving husband, my diabetic 12 year old son, and my picky 10 year old son all say, "Oh, we love this stuff!" when it is on the dinner table. I find most pork dishes to be greasy and tough, but this is delicious.

The recipe doubles beautifully! I will make extra sauce next time as it is so delicous and would love to pour some more over noodles. Yum!

Thumbs way up on this one. The sauce was absolutely delicious and I agree it tasted as good as anything you could get in a restaurant. I doubled the sauce to drip over egg noodles as a side. Yum!
