Orange Glazed Pork Chops
Orange Glazed Pork Chops has been a go-to company meal forevah in our house.

Grilled Pork Chops with Sauteed Apples
A quick and easy recipe from Bytes! This one is super fast! You'll need one medium pork chop per person. A medium chop is 3/4 inch to 1 inch thick. The ones Bytes used were about the size of my hand -- maybe three inches across by about five inches long. Grilling time is 5 to 6 minutes on each side. The apples also take about 10 minutes to cook -- no need to peel, just quarter, core and slice. If your grill has a side burner, this goes really quickly. Or you can cook the apples ahead of time and warm them just before serving with the finished chop. Use whatever apples you have on hand, a crisp apple like Gala or Fuji is good. Another Bytes' Bite --a meal that is quick to prepare and clean up and move on to the evening’s activity! Grilled Pork Chops with Sauteed Apples ... [Read More]
Wicked Good and Easy Pork Chops
These pork chops are wicked good! My sister in law, Deb, is from New England and was the first person I ever heard say something was wicked good. We tease about her accent – being from the Midwest and all, WE speak with the correct accent. When Wheels and I visited, Deb told us that they would be taking us to a seafood restaurant called Newick’s. I kept looking for Newark’s – compensating for her accent. Guess what? It really did say N E W I C K on the sign. Maybe part of the accent is in the hearer’s ear! These pork chops were a surprise, too. Surprise that I ever tried them because I do not like mustard. Not as in I hate it and it would never cross my lips, but I won’t go out of my way to eat something with mustard in it. Not only did I voluntarily make this – but it has ... [Read More]
