I grew up in Thunder Bay and my mom use to make this on a reg bases..tonite i misplaced my personal cook book, so i thought i would brows online to see if i could find this recipe. As i started reading through this recipe i realized it was almost identical to what i have. But over the years my mom switched out the ribs for pork tenderloin...MMM..i love it so much, you dont have to bother with the piece of bone. I now make this recipe time to time and my kids love it too. As my mother did with me, my kids have the job of coating each piece of pork lol <br/>so anyways, thank you for posting this recipe. My pork is now marinating for a wonderful family day meal tomorrow :)
