I also modified it a little - used Earth Balance instead of butter, wheat flour instead of all purpose, and cut down a little on the brown sugar, and threw in a few chopped dates instead. I must have tripled the amount of walnuts, and they are SUPERB. Moist and buttery... Yum!! Thank you :)

Not bad. I appreciated the suggestions to cut down cooking time, and using spicy Italian sausage gave it a little kick. It has more of a Mexican flavor thanks to the chili powder, so I almost wished I had used chorizo instead. I also agree that this could be great in burritos!

I divided the recipe in half, and used thick-cut pork loin chops (perhaps this was a mistake). After 2 hours of simmering on the lowest flame, the meat was still pretty tough (still took some effort with a knife), but the sauce was delicious with rice. Overall I was pretty happy with this dish, though I think I need to dabble with a few changes. Thanks for the recipe!
