DH and I both thought this was outstanding. There were a few adaptations in mine. Somehow I missed buying the leek (I made 2 servings) so I used the green onions that I had. I chose the orange juice but skipped the marmalade because of the sugar it would add and lastly I used dried cherries simply because I like them much better. All of that being said this was absolutely wonderful. It was a lovely mix of sweet and savory thats hard to describe except as "yummy". I had the crock on low and checked them at 4 hrs and was very glad that I did because they were done with a capital D. The chops were about 3/4" thick. There wasn't much left in the way of sauce either, it was more like a bit of drizzle. If you want more liquid you'll need to at least double the liquid you add. Made for Photo Tag. :D
