Very good. I didn't follow the recipe exactly. I didn't have apricots and I used 2/3 c orange juice and increased the preserves just a bit. After the pork chops were browned I put everything into the slow cooker (except the green onions) A couple of hours later, we had very flavourful pork chops. I served with basmati rice.
