Good recipe but pears are soggy and formless. I make a similar recipe with fresh pear slices and a splash of white wine. Pears stay intact and are a great accompaniment. I also use thinner chops that cook at the same rate as pears so both are done at the same time.

These were quite tasty and I enjoyed doing something different with the pork chops. I only had fresh pears, so instead of pear juice, I added about 1/4 cup of white wine and used dijon mustard (wine flavoured dijon), slightly less brown sugar too (about 3 tbsps). Yummy, served along with portobello mushrooms and cucumbers/roma tomatoes dressed with balsamic!

The only change I made was seasoning the chops with garlic salt & pepper before I browned them. It was a toss up between giving this recipe a 4 or 5 because there is really nothing outstanding about it. But then I realized it doesn't claim to be gourmet. This is an excellent, solid recipe. Never would I consider the combination of mustard, pears & brown sugar! So easy to make, throw it in the oven and forget about it, with all that liquid there are no worries about the pork chops drying out. The absolute ease of preparation and good, comfortable flavor make this a solid 5 star. ****** Edited to add: We were without a stove/oven & I made this in the crock pot, wow! We live out of the country & can't get canned pears so I've substituted fresh pear slices & apple juice. Have a stove again but now I just brown the pork chops and cook in the slow cooker all day. My family LOVES this recipe. *****

Nice simple recipe. I made a few changes: 1) adding onions to saute with the pork chops while browning 2) used a Dijon mustard (3-4 tsp) and mustard powder (2 tsp). 3) Cut back on the sugar (1 tbsp total) 4) used fresh pears as I don't like my dishes too sweet. 5) Added a few handfuls of chopped fresh parsley after baking and tossed. 6) Added a bit of fresh crushed black pepper Delicious! I would not have tried mustard with brown sugar before reading this recipe.

Sprayed the skillet with Pam instead of using butter, but followed the recipe exactly as written and it was great! Am having it tonight and will probably do as others did and add a little more mustard. This one is a keeper!

This is very easy recipe to make. I browned my pork chops in a cast iron skillet, with olive oil. Then I poured the remaining ingredients into the pan over the pork chops, and cooked it in the oven for 40 min. The pork chops were very tender and the sauce was a little sweet and went great over some white rice. We enjoyed this very much, will make this again...thanks

made this for my family and they loved it! I only had fresh pairs so I substituted white wine and balsamic for the pear juice. Also did a salt and pepper rub with garlic powder for almost a hour before cooking. Delicious!!!

This was very good, the chops were moist. The flavor was a tiny bit too subtle for me but my husband really liked it. I will definitely try this one again and increase the mustard and decrease the pear juice just a little. I did season the chops with garlic salt and pepper before browning. I only had a can of cinnamon pear halves (husband picked up by accident a few months ago) which we would never have eaten but worked perfectly with this recipe.

This glaze it good but a bit sweet for us. I would make it again but increase the mustard. The chops cooked in about 30 min. but that could be a function of just making two.

The pears were an interesting change from apples, but I much prefer the apples. It's easy to prepare and came out well, however. Just not our thing though.

What a tasty dish! I seared them until they were a nice golden brown. I would add some garlic powder and a dash of cayenne pepper for a kick! Served with cajun baked sweet potato from this site.

My family loved these! I used the spicy mustard with horseradish and seasoned before browning with salt, pepper, and garlic powder on both sides. Everyone thought they were great.

These were the best pork chops I've ever had. My husband kept telling my that he wished I would have made more. I just cooked them in the oven the whole time and I used spicy brown mustard instead of regular and I also added more brown sugar and cinnamon halfway through. We will definitely do this one again!!!
