CRANBERRY PECAN STUFFING
While I love stuffing, my family wasn't that fond of it-that is, until I found this recipe. I added a few touches of my own and now they gobble it up. Cranberries and pork really make it something special. -Robin Lang, Muskegon, Michigan

Steps:
- To prepare the cranberry filling: Soak 1 cup dried cranberries in the boiling water for 20 minutes. Drain the cranberries, reserving 1/4 cup of the water. Place the cranberries, reserved water, 2 tablespoons pine nuts, cinnamon, cloves, and 1 tablespoon brown sugar in a food processor. Process until finely chopped; set aside.
- Bring the chicken stock to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer until the chicken stock has reduced to half its original volume, about 15 minutes. Add the white wine, red wine, cranberry juice, and 1 tablespoon of brown sugar. Continue cooking until the sauce has reduced by half again, about 10 minutes. Keep warm.
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Cut a pocket into the side of each pork chop, about 3/4 of the way through. Stuff each pork chop with the dried cranberry mixture, then season on all sides with salt and pepper to taste. Heat the olive oil in a large, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to smoke. Cook the pork chops on one side until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the pork chops over, and cook another few minutes until browned on the other side too.
- Pour 1 cup of the sauce into the skillet and bring to a simmer. Place the skillet in the preheated oven, and bake until the pork is no longer pink in the center, 8 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
- To serve, place each pork chop onto a warmed dinner plate, and spoon the sauce from the skillet over top. Sprinkle the pork chops with 2 tablespoons dried cranberries and 2 tablespoons toasted pine nuts for decoration. Serve with the remaining cranberry sauce.

PORK CHOPS W/ APPLE CRANBERRY STUFFING
I only make stuffing from scratch at Thanksgiving and Christmas so I've taken to doctoring the box mixes. I put 4 chops in the instructions because those even numbers are usually what people are looking for however, at my grocery store the prepackaged thick or butterflied chops are sold in 3 packs. It's a pretty forgiving recipe though, just add another box of stuffing mix for up 6-8 chops and throw in more fruit and a larger pan. I increased the liquid by 1/4 c to allow for the onion and the fruit added to the mix.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- If pork chops are not butterflied, slice through leaving attached at one side so it opens like a book. Season inside and out with salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat a skillet on medium high heat with 2 T oil. Place pork cut side down in the pan.
- Leave for 4-5 minutes. Turn and fold the chop shut and brown each outer side of the meat. If the edges are very thick you can also brown the edges. The meat should not be cooked all the way through, only nicely seared and browned. Remove pan from the heat and cover to keep warm.
- To start the stuffing, add the apple liquid, chicken broth, onions, apples, cranberries and the butter to a saucepan and following directions bring to a boil.
- Once liquid is boiling stir in the bread and seasoning. Fold in well making sure all bread gets moistened. Cover. Remove from heat and let stand 5-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
- Arrange meat with the "hinged" side down in a 9x9 baking dish or cake pan sprayed with a nonstick spray. Fill the upward facing pockets of the pork with the stuffing. If you have any stuffing left, spoon around the base of the meat.
- Cover with foil and bake for 20-30 minutes or the meat is cooked to your satisfaction.
- I still have a thing about pork and I tend to overcook it to this day. Please use your own judgment:).

CRANBERRY AND PECAN CRUSTED RACK OF PORK
Steps:
- Combine the brining solution ingredients together and cover the pork with the cranberry liquid overnight.
- Puree the dried cranberries in a blender with a little bit of water until smooth.
- Toast the pecans. Place in food processor and pulse until slightly ground. Add bread crumbs and picked thyme. Pulse again. Add 3 ounces clarified butter until mixture sticks together to adhere on the pork.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
- After the pork has been brined, remove from the liquid and pat dry. Discard the brining liquid. Heat a large saute pan until hot, add 3 tablespoons of clarified butter and sear the rack on both sides. Place the pork on a meat rack. Spread the cranberry paste on the pork and then top with the pecan bread crumbs. Cover with foil and bake for about 1 1/2 hours or until meat thermometer registers 130 degrees. Remove the foil about 10 to 15 minutes before the pork is done, to brown the pecan crust. Allow the pork to rest 15 minutes before slicing.
- When ready to serve slice the rack of pork into 8 slices and plate each piece. Arrange each plate with a Wilted Spinach and Apple Tart. Finish each plate with cranberry pork sauce.
- Heat 2 large saute pans until hot. Add the olive oil and garlic. Now add the spinach, season with salt and cook until just wilted. Serve immediately.
- Peel, core and dice 1 apple, saute in butter, season with salt and sugar. Add the cream and reduce by 3/4. Puree until very smooth.
- Slice potato into thin slices with mandoline. Cook in boiling water until almost tender. Set aside.
- Roll out puff pastry a bit. Score with a sharp knife. With a 2-inch cookie cutter, cut out 8 circles of puff pastry. Place between 2 sheets of waxed paper on baking sheet, weigh down with another baking sheet and blind bake in oven until almost cooked through. Remove from oven and let cool.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Spread a heaping teaspoon of the apple cream on top of the puff pastry. Peel and slice the other apple, and then fan apple and potato slices around the puff pastry, making a pinwheel design. Brush with butter and sprinkle with salt and sugar. Bake for about 25 minutes. Brush with a little more butter and sprinkle with some more sugar and broil for 1 minute until the tarts are caramelized.
- Saute the cranberries in 1 tablespoon of butter until they start to split, sprinkle with sugar and salt, deglaze with the wine and reduce until almost dry. Add in the cranberry juice and thyme sprig; reduce by 1/2. Strain the sauce through a fine sieve, whisk in the remaining cold butter and check for proper seasoning.
