Mmmm, these are good! My husband ate them all up quickly. I am not into all traditional Chinese food, but these were just so flavorful that I couldn't resist! I also brined the pork to make it super super tender (only brine non-Kosher meat or meat that hasn't already been treated with salt - just check the label). For 4 bone-in rib loin pork chops (12 ounces each), 1 1/2 inches thick, you will dissolve 3 tablespoons of salt and 3 tablespoons of sugar in 1.5 quarts of water in a container large enough to hold the meat. You may need to add more water/salt/sugar in the same proportions until the meat is completely submerged. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. Then remove the pork from the brine, rinse, and pat dry with paper towels. The meat is now ready to be cooked.

I was looking for a rib recipe that was not BBQ (and thus not as sugary). These were great. Kids loved them. Husband asked me to make them again less than a week later. I did nit marinate the ribs. Just cooked them in the sauce (plus 1/2 c water) in the crockpot on high for 6 hrs, then broiled them in the oven to crisp them up a bit. Wonderful! - 21 Apr 2011 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
