My family really liked this recipe. It was easy and one that I would use for company. I used honey instead of brown sugar and a "no-sugar added" applesauce and we thought the sweetness was just right.

I thought this recipe was great. After reading the comment on sweetness, I used "no sugar added granny smith applesauce" and used lots of fresh ground black pepper. Set to low for the full 9 hours. Pork was tender and savory-not too sweet at all. Will defintely make again. Thanks for the great recipe!

Didn't care for this. Chops were tough, potatoes were too sweet for me. Just not my cup of tea.
