  1. *I* really liked this recipe. My family isn't used to sweet sauces on meat, but the blend of cinnamon, ginger, orange marmelade, and sweet potatoes was VERY good on my tongue. I did leave out the dried fruit--my family doesn't like that stuff at all, and I used regular all-purpose flour instead of Biquick. It was also relatively easy to make--most of the needed for this recipe is the baking time.
     
  2. This dish was awesome, and easy to prepare. I used cranraisons, and sliced the sweet potatos like potato chips and used plenty. I also used extra marmalade and cooked it a little longer then the recipe called for. It was so good, that I took the leftovers over to my 73 year old father. He loved it too. Thanks
     
  3. This was yummy! A very different combination for pork chops, but tasty. I liked the sweet potatos with it. It was sweeter than I thought it would be, from the marmalade? (never used marmalade before) A nice change. :-)
