Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Delicious recipes for red velvet cakes, cupcakes, and cheesecakes.

I think the person who left the first review posted it to the wrong recipe. She references sweet potatos and apples, neither of which are used in this recipe.

Whoever did the other rating obviously didn't cook it correctly. The chops were moist, the squash tender and the flavor out of this world!! I did use a butternut squash so not sure how the scorn would change the taste.

The pork chops were overcooked and dry. The sweet potatoes were undercooked and bland. I think you needed to cook the apples and sweet potatoes for a few hours before adding pork chops, however, it still would have been very bland.

I do a lot of crockpot cooking in the office where I work. This was considered the best dish by those who partook of it. They put it above my gumbo and jambalaya which they all thought where very good. The only changes I made was adding ground gloves and I put the chops in a ziplock back with Tony Chachere's seasoning overnight. Whoever came up with this did really good.
