Pork With Blueberry Sauce I Made It

Pork With Blueberry Sauce

Recipe by Eucalombian: Pork With Blueberry Sauce
A deeply savory dish!
Onions play up nicely in the sauce.
No such thing as a small red onion in my neck of the woods. So I doubled the sauce batch, especially that we cant get just a half pint of blueberries either. This makes plenty of sauce even without doubling it.
Went a little heavy on the pepper but it was all good.
Run a slice of rye bread under the goodies on my second helping.
Flavors are very bold. If you're a wine drinker this will need a bold red wine.
Very nice recipe and quick to make!

Ahh, this one sounds so good to me! I'm a huge meat with fruit sauce person so this is definitely up my alley! So glad it turned out for you :)

I didn't notice that one when it got posted so thanks for putting it here, pso. It certainly looks easy. Someone would think you worked mighty hard when it was served to them. Looks like a good one for guests.

Buy a pork loin so you can trim the fat and cut the chops to your liking. Mine were about 1/2" thick and 10 minutes (the time it took the double batch sauce to thicken) in the oven brought the temp up to 160. I was shooting for 145. Going to try 1-inchers next time.

I made this the other night. It was VERY good and the sauce thickened up nicely! Using a loin to cut myself would have been a great idea but what I had was 5, 1/2 inch thin boneless chops. Wish I wouldn't have gone so heavy handed on the cilantro, it's hiding most of my blueberry sauce!

I made this last night. What a great and easy dish. I had a 2.5LB sirloin tip roast that I cut in a little bigger than an inch. I seared them in a CI skillet on high with bacon grease. Then decided to finish them on the stove. Kept them in the warmer while I made the onions and blueberry sauce. I also somehow walked out of the store with a bag of spinach instead of fresh parsley. Dont ask me how I did that, but am glad I did.. I thought it was an excellent flavor addition. I LOVED this. Ate 3 steaks (are pork steaks called chops?) Only 2 little end pieces left : ( Next time Im doubling this and there will be a next time. Added a pic. This was the first time using blueberries in anything. Great recipe, Eucalombian

Wow, MrP, you are becoming quite the chef. Searing chops in a cast iron skillet in bacon grease? :-D The spinach does sound like a nice "mistake" as well. I should try this. I like the idea of the blueberries with the pork.
Nice picture, too. It looks like your new house has lots of natural light. :)

You got a new house Mr P? Congrats!

Good thing you didn't accidentally pick up cilantro instead of parsley or that would have been a mistake, yikes! :) Bet the spinach was great with this though! Nice looking chops (or pork steaks ;)

Thanks,guys. ml2c. Yeh a few months ago we tore the place down and built a new one. It consumed most of my after work hours. Thats why I have been so scarce. Now that Im moved in things should start getting back to normal. I hope anyway. Still tons of work to do, but now its at my leisure with no deal lines but my own. Speaking of cilantro, when I was at the store I saw a bundle of it and almost got some. But I chickened out. I didnt want to waste a dish incase I still hate it. But the spinach was really good
