This was very very good. Nice flavor and very easy to make. I did thicken the sauce with a little cornstarch. Served with rice and green beans. Thanks for posting this Mae! Made for Zaar Cookbooks Tag.

    yum yum yumm!! i didn't have my brown suger firmly packed and i think i over did it with the olive oil... instead of 2 tablespoons it was more like 4. I don't know why. and i had lots of mushrooms that were going to go bad if i didnt use them and boy was i glad i did! i cant imagine this plate without them! either way it was extremely delicious! i did add some maizena (cornstarch i think?) at the end to thicken it up for my mashed potatoes. thank you maeeast!

    This braised pork is wonderful! I tried to hide it from DH but it didnt work, we ate it all! The pork is very tender and I did double the soy sauce, brown sugar, and water. Cooked quickly in my electric skillet and browned so nicely. A definite keeper, thank you MaeEast!

    I am not a fan of pork; in fact, if it weren't my DH's favorite, I would never eat pork, but I sure did enjoy this! As promised, it was melt-in-your-mouth tender! Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it and there were absolutely none of the usual and anticipated left-overs (I always plan roast recipes to last for 2 meals). I will certainly be making this one again! Thank you for improving my perspective towards one of DH's favorite foods Mae!
