One of the best tasting meals I've made yet! I used blue cheese instead of gorgonzola, but it turned out great!

Other than using 8 thin boneless chops, I followed this recipe exactly. Rolling the stuffing mixture up in pounded out chops secured with toothpics worked well. This was a hit with the family. Will definitely make this again. May try using feta or blue cheese next time... Thanks!

This really is delicious. I prepared this for a dinner party of eight, with broccoli and mashed potatoes. Since I like simple- I thot it time consuming to make each individual "pocket". Next time I will just take a braised pork loin, slice it and add that wonderful cheese/apple/thyme suace on the top. This is not your usual roast & potatoes and I will be eating this again.

This is sooooo fantastic! My chops were a little dry, but next time they will be perfect. Dan LOVED them, and couldn't get enough of the sauce, which I make with white wine instead of chicken stock. Gorgonzola has a very very strong flavor so you might try a couple two (3..4) drips of honey along the way.

I've made this a few times and it's always a hit. Gorgonzola is too strong for my hubby so I use regular blue cheese and I saute extra apples to put in the sauce on top. Like others, I brown the pork chops before baking and I use the same pan to make the sauce, which helps give it a richer flavor a bit faster. Excellent recipe.

This is really good, I made a few changes to make it more of a rich meal. I added some cream cheese and cooked bacon bits to the apple stuffing and it was really really good. I also use flat thin boneless pork chops and rolled them and secured them with a tooth pick to cook them. I browned them before I baked them and I had some of the apple stuffing left over and I topped the chops with it so there would be more apples. The last change I made was that I didnt pre-cook the apples I just stuffed them because that would have been cooking them twice.

I love this recipe for a "something special" recipe..the apple provides sweet tartness and the gorgonzola cheese savory..compliments each other well... also,I like the fact it isnt stuffed with bread crumbs. I added a small amount chopped onion sauteed in olive oil to stuffing. Delicious!

I had high expectations, but unfortunately this fell a little short for me. My personal preference would be to leave the thyme out or sub it with something different, it was just too strong in my opinion. I wanted the apples to be the star of the dish and I barely noticed they were there. The sauce was good however, no extra salt needed as it gets pretty salty when reduced. Next time I will at least double if not triple the apple and replace the thyme with another herb or just leave it at the apples and cheese.
