  • Reviews

  • “Great recipe!I was a little pressed for time, so instead of baking the pork chops, I grilled them instead.I marinated them about 8 hours.No “sauce” is left when you grill them, but the chops came out juicy and tasty anyway…”

  • “Thank you Dorothy.I really enjoyed this recipe – it’s a keeper.I cut the recipe back for one serving and no problem. Didn’t have Apple cider vinegar so used Tarragon vinegar and I chopped the Shallots, marinated the chop for about 2 hours.MMMmmmmmm”

  • “Wonderful!First time I’ve ever used shallots. I followed ingredients exactly but doubled the whole recipe to feed 8. I only used one 10X15 glass dish so my cooking time was a little longer. That was probably because there were like 3 porkchops on top of the rest. I’ll definetely make this over and over.Another small thing I did different was to use large ziplock for marination. Thanks for posting.”

  • “Dorothy, this is a great recipe, quick easy and tasty, but I wish I had the ketchup instead of the chilli sauce (or half and half of each) as it was just a bit hot for the rest of the family. I will try it with ketchup and review it again at a later date.”

  • “I made these the other night and they were very good. It was nice and easy since I put the pork chops in a ziploc bag marinated all day came home from work and popped them in the oven. This was very easy. Thanks ! also I might try this on chicken next time too! :)”

  • “This was very good.I loved the BBQ sauce and will use it on other things too.”

  • “This was great! We had it last night and everyone loved the pork chops (we used boneless). We had it with coleslaw and jell-o—it was great the whole dinner was things I could early in the day!”

  • “A nice change to boneless pork chops.Thought of adding fresh mushrooms the next time. Very easy to prepare.Ingredients were very available, nothing too “exotic”.”

  • “My review will be the opposite of JanS—I used the ketchup and wish I had used the chili sauce because the spicier the better for us.This is a deliciously easy recipe and I plan to make it again, this time using the chili sauce.By the way, I had 8 center cut, boneless chops and there was plenty of sauce.”

  • “Absolutely delicious!! I scaled the recipe to 2 chops (bone-in), used 2 small garlic cloves & a large chopped shallot – marinated for the full 8 hours. If no shallots on hand, I would chop some red onion. My husband thinks the sauce will be great on “those little meat balls” that I make. Thanx Dorothy!”

  • “Yummy chops!I used the ketchup and had added basil by mistake … added the oregano, too, and taste was just great.Made this recipe with boneless loin chops.I did cut back a bit on the chili powder.”

  • “Very good chops! The only modification I made was to eliminate the shallots, as I had none (I like them, but I don’t keep them on hand all the time), so I added extra garlic. This recipe was very easy to prepare, and made with ingredients on hand (well, except for the shallots!) The chops marinated in the fridge for only an hour, all the time I could spare, and then I cooked them for 45 minutes. I think a longer marinating time would be best, but I was time-strapped, unfortunately. The flavour of the sauce was excellent, with both sweet and tangy overtones. I’ll definitely make this again.”

  • “This marinade was wonderful! I baked these chops for a few minutes less and they came out moist and delicious. I’ll definitely be making this again. Thanks!”

  • “These were very good, will definetly be making again.Let this marinate for 1 day because it was too hot the day before to start the oven and they were very flarorful…..”

  • “This has been a difficult one to assess as it went from a 1 to a 5, some thought too sweet (I used tomatoe sauce/ketchup and all other ingredients as per recipe).For those that like shallots (onions) they were really enjoyed but was wishing I used more than the 5 cloves of garlic that I did (they were small).Overall a really easy recipe to do and as I write this review I have just noted Blue Roses photo which has got me thinking that maybe over the B-B-Q the one that rated it 1 may be won over more, food for thought.Thank you Derf for a recipe that was overall enjoyed.”

  • “These were okay. The sauce was a little overpowering.”

  • “This was good.The sauce was pretty sweet and it’s an easy recipe.My guys said it was okay.a”

  • “These were great, a hit at dinner tonight. I Used the really thick cut pork chops, used the ketchup and left out the shallots, then grilled them on the grill, and we ate up every bite I cooked :)”

  • “This was pretty good. My husband and I avoid pork chops because whenever we have them they’re too dry, but these turned out pretty good. Thanks!”

  • “Thanks for the recipe, I cooked it for my husband & sister, who raved about it – I don’t eat prk myself, but feel proud of the fact that i could cook something so tasty that didn’t need me to taste-test. Well done! Dianne.”
