Witchcraft's blog: "Recipes - Yum!"

Here's an old Crock Pot recipe I completely forgot to post last Fall ~ so now you'll have to wait a little bit to sample it! (Unless of course, there's acorn squash available where you are, depending on the season...) The guys like it. Do you?

6 pork chops

2 medium acorn squash

3/4 tsp salt

2 Tbsp melted butter

3/4 cup packed brown sugar

3/4 tsp kitchen boquet

1 Tbsp orange juice

1/2 tsp grated orange peel

Trim excess fat from chops. Cut each squash (unpeeled) into 4-6 crosswise slices and remove seeds. Arrange three chops on the bottom of your Crock Pot. Place all the squash slices on top, and then top with the remaining chops. Combine the remaining ingredients in a small bowl and spoon over the chops. Cover and cook on Low about 4-6 hours or until done.

Serve one or two slices of squash with each pork chop. Makes about six servings.
