I made these as meatballs. It felt like they were missing something, possibly garlic. The meatballs themselves needed something else, besides the sauce.

Awesome! We loved these. We also used the sweet & sour II sauce but really I think they stand alone as a great meatball dish. (we made them into balls rather than patties.)

This was wonderful. I added ginger, but the next time I'll add garlic poweder and green onions. The three G's of asian cooking. Since I had left overs, I made more white rice and added more ginger while it cooked. Amazining on what flavor it added to the whold dish. I think I also might try making my own Sweet and Sour sauce.

These were delicious. I made homemade sweet and sour sauce from the all recipes website called sweet and sour sauce II. I made the meat as meatballs instead of patties. I also baked them for a less fatty version. I added some green peppers and onions to the sauce and meat balls and served it over rice.

Yummy! My husband and I loved this! Made a few changes to suit our liking, but it was great! It will be in our meal plans now. Took the advice and made the meatballs.

This was a nice change from the usual. I added a teaspoon of worchestershire, ketchup, and yellow mustard, as well as a 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger. I also increased the breadcrumbs to about 3/4 cup. I formed the mixture into balls (about 1 inch) and baked at 350 for 30 minutes. I actually froze these, then defrosted them out when we were ready to eat and heated them through in a skillet with the sweet and sour sauce. Next time, I'm going to make my own sweet and sour sauce and probably double the amount called for, so we have enough sauce to serve over rice.

Everyone I've made this for LOVES it. I put it over brown rice and left the sauce on the side as optional.

This was fun and different! I used other reviewer's suggestions and made meatballs instead and baked them in the oven for 25 minutes. I also used Sweet and Sour Sauce II (also as suggested) and it was perfect. Will probably make again, and next time might try ground turkey instead.

After reading some of the other reviews, I decided to make these into meatballs and make a sweet and sour sauce to go with them. I added the ketchup and mustart that was recommended in another review. I loved the kick the pepper flakes added. My family loved these and requested that I make them again.

This recipe was a good, basic pork meatball/patti recipe. I made it as listed, then added things we love. . . garlic, curry, oregano, basil. I browned the meatballs then mixed it with the Sweet and Sour II recipe on this site and it made a fantastic meal.

This was very good for how easy it was. I don't know how "healthy" it is for you, but it was a delicious meal. I forgot to patty the pork and just used it ground, but it turned out just fine. Thanks for the recipe!

Awesome! My picky 2 year old and not quite as picky husband and 4 year old ate this up. I sauteed half an onion and half a green pepper as well and added with the sauce at the end. Would probably add twice as much or more of both next time. Also halved the amount of red pepper because of the aforementioned children and still had a nice kick. Thank you!

This is a wonderful way to use ground pork. If you like spicy, add a pinch more red pepper. This has become part of our regular meals.

This was really a great alternative to orinary burgers. Even my husband who is a hamburger fan, love the pork. He omitted the sweet sour sauce, but I like it with the sauce. Good that you can have the option!

This recipe was a perfect alternative to traditional sweet and sour pork. It was so easy. My only problem was that I should have made more! I followed the recipe for the patties to a T and it was perfect. I used the Sweet and Sour Sauce II (submitted by myrite on allrecipes.com)- which by the way was almost as easy as opening a jar of store sauce, but much better. After adding the sweet and sour sauce to the patties, I added about 1/2 of a bell pepper and 1/2 of an onion cut into really big chunks.. I let that cook together for about 15 min. My family almost inhaled supper that night it was so good! THANKS for sharing your recipe, Linda. ***foot note*** my 6 year old daughter thought it was too spicy and couldn't eat it, so keep that in mind with the pepper flakes.
