Absolutely great stuff ! I have 3 pear trees - and have been looking for the right recipe. After several years of making chutney and confit - this is the new all round winner ! My wife loves it - and I'm making some more. It's very sweet - so I would try to cut down the sugar a bit. ( Try 4.5 or 4 cups). Of course it depends on the ripeness of the pears.

WOW and Double WOW. This is good. I ran out of sugar, so only used 3 1/2 cups but it was still delicious. Thanks for the wonderful recipe.

This has an exellent almost candy like flavor. The consistency (for those like me who have never eaten it before)is like maple syrup with fruit suspended in it and the color of honey. I made two batches of this and I will make it again.

My family has been using this recipe for years. My grandmother has two canning/cooking pear trees. Most of the time we dont add the pineapple and it turns out great. Once people taste this they will BEG for more. I always have to mail my brother a case of it everytime we make it. We use it on biscuits, toast, pancakes, ice cream and cakes. Thank you for posting, now I can add it to my cookbook!
