These were very good. I think the applesauce helped keep the pork moist, while the cheese added a completely different dimension of flavor. DH is not an applesauce fan, and asked if he could have his without- so we made one each way and both concluded that the one with the apples was better. Instead of broiling, we made these on the grill, added the sauce and cheese just before the chop was done, then closing the grill to melt the cheese. We both agreed that next time we would cut the cheese back to half the amount next time, it's very strong flavor became overwhelming by the end of the chop. Thanks for posting! Made for ZWT6.
