I have a similar recipe that I've used for years. I use 3/4 C white and 3/4 C brown sugar and an entire 9 oz pkg of red hots. This makes enough syrup to do 5 lbs of apples. The recipe calls for 3 lbs, but I have done 5 lbs. You may have to do it in 2 to 3 batches depending on the size of your pan. Start with aprox half of your apple slices and remove when tender with a slotted spoon. Place remaining apple slices into syrup and cook till tender. These are delicious! I have many requests for them at holiday time. They go great with ham, but are good with turkey as well. Enjoy!

The flavor of these apples were super! However, the sauce never thickened up, and there was way too much of it. I have come across another recipe that did not call for any water.. just using the apples and red-hots. The juice from the apples gives it enough moisture. I think that is how I may try these the next time.
