Next time I’ll make my own sauce or buy a better one 😉 but overall, we loved this! Like a twist on chili. The pork allowed for other flavors to come through nicely! Instead of having it over bread (which fell apart too easily for us), we put in a bowl and scooped it w bread. With the left overs, we plan to make some noodles to add to it (minus the bread) to stretch what’s left. Recipe keeper. 🙂 Thanks!

This has become a go to dish in our family. Easy fun and great tasting. We have made it on the grill and and gatherings it is one of the first to go.

Pretty spicy actually. But also pretty good.

This was a very good recipe, I made two different batches and substituted mushrooms in place of the peppers and both turned out exellent. I added some crushed tomato’s, and a dash of chili powder, and it turned out wonderful.

We thought this was just okay. I think it would have been significantly better with Italian sausage instead of ground pork. Sorry, but not a keeper for me.

Tasty, quick and easy. I used a dash of red pepper flakes instead of fresh pepper, and it came out great, with just the right amount of spice. Oh, and I served it with garlic bread hot from the oven! Definitely a keeper!

Wow! Simple and quick to put together–I used fresh veggies from my garden, and added a little Hungarian hot smoked paprika! Spicy, flavorful, and delicious!!! A keeper!!!
