Nice easy recipe! Hubby loved it-said the glaze was like orange marmalade. It was surprisingly sweet. Thanks.

I really liked this recipe. I tried to make it last week and left it for 6 hours on low. Not sure what happened but it didnt work. Today I made it while I was at home. Very delicious. I served it on brown rice and should have made some veggies to go with it. I will make it again and add some veggies!
