Delicious and very quick and easy to make. I had enough sauce that I kept it in a jar in the fridge and we fixed more pork chops later in the week as we enjoyed them so much!
I've made this many times in my household, it is a staple! The only thing I change is, I use sweet tea instead of coffee, since I feel coffee gives it a VERY strong flavor. If you're not a fan of coffee flavor, try the sweet tea method. Richer and a sweeter flavor. And I double the glaze so we can also use it on mashed potatoes, or veggies. Delicious!
There are four very strong flavors coming together here and the combination just didn't work for me. The leftovers, with time for the flavors to marry, tasted much better.
I didnt have dijon mustard so i used regular mustard. And I didnt have regular coffee. I used Kona Coffee chocolate macadamian flavored. it turned out really good.
Quick, easy and delicious. The pork chops were flavorful and juicy, done perfectly without drying out.
This was wonderfully aromatic while cooking and wow'd everyone at the table. I threw a coiuple sliced cooking apples in the sauce and served them on the side. Husband wanted to know when we get to have them again!
My family loves this recipe, including 2 small children. We double the sauce so we an serve it with mashed potatoes.
I adapted the recipe for the slow cooker even though someone else said it didn't work. I thickened the sauce with a little flour mixed in cold water and slowly mixed it into the sauce till thick. Pour over pork in slow cooker. Unfortunately, I can't remember exactly how long I cooked it. Pretty sure I cooked it on low for about three hours. It was fork tender and delicious! My husband loved it too!
This recipe was fast and easy. I followed the recipe exactly and it was so savory and delicious. The chops were tender and the combination of flavors was superb. Definitley a keeper!
I made the recipe as it was written. It needs absolutely NO changes, as it's perfect. Even my picky 2 and 3 year olds ate them, and they hate meat! It will definitely be on my menu regularly.
