Pork Chops in Sweet Spicy Chili Onion Sauce
Pork, should I repeat? PORK, PORK, PORK!! you know the way the Bible says God always knows what He is doing and has a reason to place you wherever you are? Well for me God knew that I just had to be a Christian or a protestant Christian at that. I don’t know how I would survive as a Jew or Muslim without enjoying or knowing the pleasure that pork meat can bring into your life.
Pork has this way of lightening up a dull day. It’s like the weather can be at 18 degrees Celsius but a plate of well cooked pork will make it into an amazingly warm day, perfect at 25 degrees with a cool breeze and you laying at the beach cocktail in hand. Or, you can be bored at home wondering what the hell the day has to offer and there is a plate of well marinated pork, juicy and sweet and spicy and out of nowhere there is a party in your mouth. This is what this pork chops will do for you.
