Personally, I do not like cranberries, but I was charged with making the cranberry side for Christmas, and I thought this sounded interesting. I am giving this five stars because my family just fell all over themselves for the recipe, and thought it was the best!

This is a great recipe and I made some modifications based on ingredients that I had on hand. I added additional sugar as another reviewer suggested. I also combined some ingredients from the "Mum's Cranberry Chutney" recipe adding 1 cup of raisins and 1 stalk of celery (diced). I used 1 apple and I skipped the pears because I didn't have any on hand. Finally, I added a little ground nutmeg and ground ginger.

Guests liked it but there is so much white vinegar in it it is pungent.

My aunt made this for Thanksgiving and it was fabulous!!! She said she only makes easy dishes and I don't think she changed anything. Everyone raved about it so I'm pretty sure it will become a regular Thanksgiving side. Thanks for sharing.

I made this for Thanksgiving dinner and it was wonderful!! I made a few very minor adjustments... I increased the sugar to 1 cup (it seemed too tart with 3/4 cup, but I'm sure tartness varies depending on the ripeness of the cranberries). I also added 1/2 tsp of orange zest. I used a 2qt saucepan and ended up not having enough room for all of the apple (granny smiths) and pear pieces. It was great with the amount used. Next time I will only use one apple and one pear. This will be a standard Turkey Day Dish in our house from now on! Excellent recipe - thanks for sharing it!!

This was so delicious - everybody loved it. It makes a big pot, so be prepared to freeze the leftovers. I added 1 t. of powdered ginger, could probably have added even more. I also felt like I could have even used a whole onion.

I loved this recipe and it was so easy to make. My husband even liked it and added it to his pork chops. I didn't have any pears so I just used more apples.
