Updated Apple Pie Pork Recipe

We've made this a couple times, and it's always delicious. We've made it with pork chops and boneless country style pork ribs and the boneless ribs are our favorite. They have more fat marbling than pork chops and don't dry out as much during the cooking. I also increased the amount of potato starch. The fat in the meat combines with the potato starch to make a delicious silky sauce. 

This pork is delicious over white rice or cooked millet. I've recently started cooking the millet in chicken broth instead of water and what a huge difference! It's so much more flavorful. Try this recipe if you have kids that are reluctant to eat meat. 

Apple Pie Boneless Country Style Pork Ribs

2 lbs boneless country style pork ribs
12 small or 8 medium gala apples, cored and diced
3/4 cup sugar
4 Tbsp potato starch
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp allspice
1/2 tsp salt

1. Optional: Line crock pot with crock pot liner
2. Place pork at bottom of crock pot.
3. In a large bowl, combine the remaining ingredients.
4. Pour apple mixture over pork.
5. Cook on low 6-8 hours or high 3-4 hours. 

Cooked Millet

1.5 cups dry hulled millet
6 cups chicken broth or water

1. Run your hands through the millet to look for little rocks. Toast the millet in a nonstick pot over medium heat for a few minutes, stirring often. 
2. Add the liquid and cover. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
