Try this recipe at least once. You really will like it. This is one of the few ways my family will eat pork, and they love it.

Yum! These turned out great. I didn't have any frozen orange juice concentrate so I used regular orange juice. I also boiled the marinade at the end to use as a sauce which was good too. Read More

I myself loved it but the husband and kids found it too "exotic" LOL. They didn't care for the orange flavor and though I didn't tell them it was in there (I have learned not to tell them what's in anything) they picked it up right away. So for me I would make it again and again but if you have picky kids or a picky husband they may not like this. Read More

The flavor of these were great. I used thick chops and broiled them for 8 minutes on each side. They turned out really moist and flavorful. I would make this again. Read More

We really enjoyed this and it was a great way to use up some BBQ sauce whose flavor we didn't care for by itself. We added some extra garlic and cooked the chops on a Foreman grill for about 20 minutes and they turned out great. Not very spicy at all so if that's what you're looking for maybe throw in some crushed red peppers too. Read More

We LOVED the flavor of this recipe. Followed the recipe to a T and it was wonderful! Also simmered the remaining marinade to use as a sauce (the flavors are strong so a little goes a long way). Also I only was able to marinate the chops for about 6 hours and it was fine. Thank you Diana! Read More

I THOUGHT THIS WAS JUST OKAY. I USED BONELESS CHICKEN INSTEAD OF PORK CHOPS. WHEN I GRILLED THE CHICKEN SOME OF THE MARINADE TURNED A BIT BLACK. OVERALL I THINK IT IS WORTH TRYING AGAIN. Read More

This recipe was good but not one of my favorites. I love all the ingredients but it just didn't trip my trigger. It was too cold to grill outside so we broiled them maybe that was the difference. They did taste better the next day for leftovers. Read More

Really delicious. I did not include the rosemary b/c we were out - but I don't think the recipe suffered. My husband & 4 year old loved it - and my 4 year old doesn't love ANYTHING. Will definitely make again. Read More
