SMUCKER'S APRICOT SWEET AND SOUR PORK

Smucker's Apricot Sweet and Sour Pork image

This came from the Smucker's website. I love using preserves instead of fresh fruit when I can get away with it. It is just easier and cheaper for me :) I haven't tried it yet, but I fully intend to the next time I'm feeling a bit porky! Prep and cook times are a guess because the website doesn't really specify.
