Delicious Bergy! I used 3 pork loin chops (bone in) and cut down on the brown sugar and sherry (just a little) Served with the sherry flavoured apples over top of chops, Sweet and just a little tangy. Yum! -
these pork chops were delicious!! We loved the apples and cinnamon and the sherry was a lovely touch. I just couldn't stand seeing all that lovely stuff on the bottom of the frypan from browning the chops so I deglazed the pan with the sherry (I used a little extra to make up for the steam loss) and poured it over the chops,lovely brown stuff!! I also used splenda brown sugar mix. All and all it's a wonderful flavourful dinner and the aroma while cooking is out of this world. Thanks for posting, I'll be making these again. Oct 23/08, made this for DH for supper tnight, he sure does love them, the apples are delicious and the pork tender, thanks again! -
Wonderful, Bergy! The house smelled like a Fall afternoon in the apple orchard store sipping apple cider in Ohio. I felt the love of those memories while these pork chops baked. I too spooned the apple mixture on top each chop to serve them. I used Jonagold apples and they stayed in tact with that baked apple pie flavor. Our daughter said, "This is a different dish, and very good!" She isn't a pork chop lover, but was quite pleased with this recipe, as were my husband and I. It's a keeper! Thanks for filling me with beautiful memories of Ohio, Bergy!The entire cooking and eating was a great time for all of us. -
This was a great recipe and it does make the house smell great. I didn't have any sherry so I used dry red wine. It was great. I would add dried cranberries if I had some. I think that would be good. I will make it again. -
Pretty good and easy, which of course is the best part. Everyone liked it.

Small town in the Okanagan, B.C.
On January 10 2010 I will celebrate 9 years of Life with Zaar. I can't imagine being without it! It has become part of my daily routine.
I feel very privileged to be one of the hosts on the Photo Forum. Taking photos of my culinary efforts is a full time hobby and I love it. My friends all know what to expect when they come to dinner "Are you finished taking pictures?" or "Did you get a photo of so & so?" I never let them wait too long and the food is NEVER cold! I now have over 6000 photos on Zaar - some fairly good and some definitely not so good. I am happy to say that practice does help.
My roots are in Vancouver BC Canada - a very beautiful city that holds many wonderful memories for me. In 1990, I decided that for my retirement years I may want to settle in a smaller community and found a slice of heaven in the North Okanagan B.C. I love living here but every once in a while I miss the bright city lights, the Broadway shows and some of the small wonderful ethnic restaurants that Vancouver abounds in. That is easily resolved. I just take a trip to the coast, visit with friends for a weekend see a show and feast on Dim Sum or other specialty foods.
I am getting a bit long in the tooth but was a very adventurous person. I have river rafted Hell's Gate on the Fraser river, been up in a glider over Hawaii (no not a Hang Glider!), gone hot air ballooning in the Napa Valley & the Fraser Valley, driven dune buggies on the dunes in Oregon, Para sailing in Mexico and tried many other adventurous, challenging, fun things. I have yet to try bungee jumping or sky diving. I may do them yet. I love to travel and experience other cultures. Mexco has been a favorite haunt. I have visited that lovely country many many times. Australia is another favorite as is England!
In the past 16 months I have taken off 61 pounds and feel wonderful. I am off all medications and all systems are GO! In years I may be 79 but in spirit I am still in my forties. We are only as old as we allow ourselves to feel. Always think positive. Do something a bit challenging every day & always do something silly every day. Be a kid again! Laugh every day - it is internal jogging.
Here are a few of my photos
