Lemonade Pork Chops image

I saw this on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. I put the recipe together by watching the video on their website several times and guesstimating the amounts. You can make any adjustments you feel like to suit your own taste as the simmering progresses. As a bonus, this is about the best lemonade I have ever tasted due to the fact that you get all the oil from the skins included and there is no heat used that could alter the flavour.

Time 2h20m

Yield 18 Pork Chops, 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

7 large lemons, cut in 1/8ths
2 cups sugar
8 cups water
750 ml ketchup
1 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 cups soy sauce
1 cup apple cider vinegar
3 teaspoons oregano
3 teaspoons paprika
3 teaspoons chili powder
3 teaspoons dried onion flakes
3 teaspoons garlic
3 teaspoons cracked black pepper
3 teaspoons ginger
2 teaspoons basil
2 teaspoons thyme
18 pork chops
2 cups breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • In batches in food processor combine Lemons, sugar and just enough water to make a slurry. In a large container combine the slurry with the rest of the water. Strain the mixture and you should end up with 8 cups of the best lemonade you ever tasted.
  • Combine all other ingredients and the lemonade. Simmer for 2 hours and use immediately or set aside in fridge for later use.
  • This amount covers 18 large Pork Chops in a full sized roasting pan, so adjust amounts according to requirements.
  • When I made the Pork Chops, this did 18 large (Costco) bone in double loin chops. I just tossed them in bread crumbs and quickly browned them in a skillet. Then they are stacked overlapping in a deep roasting pan and covered with the sauce. Cover the roaster with plastic wrap and then aluminum foil. Place in a preheated oven at 350F and cook for 2 hours or until the chops are easy to pull apart. At the 1 hour mark, rearrange the chops so the top ones spend some time completely covered in sauce.
