Ingredients

    Crushed Pineapple, one large can (15 oz or so)
    White Vinegar, 2/3 cup
    Ketchup, 3 tbsp
    Brown Sugar, 1/8 cup
    Water, 1/2 cup
    Corn Starch, 2 Tbsp
    Pork Chop, Boneles, Lean, 2 lbs before trimming fat
    onion, one medium, chopped
    One each red, yellow, & green pepper, sliced into strips
    Celery, 1 cup, diced

    White Rice - 1 1/2 cups uncooked
    Water, 3 cups

    Chow Mein Noodles - 2 cups divided equally

Directions

Mix crushed pineapple, vinegar, ketchup, brown sugar, & water in a pan over high heat until it comes to a boil. Add corn starch, bring to a boil until sauce thickens.

Meanwhile, add the uncooked white rice to 3 cups of water, cover, and bring to a boil. Once at a boil, turn the heat to low and keep covered for 15 minutes.

Trim excess fat from the pork chops and cut into bite sized pieces before cooking over med-high heat, or until there is no pink on any of the pieces. Add peppers, onion, and celery and cook until all are at the desire consistency.

Once everything is cooked to your liking, combine the pork mixture to the sauce mixture, and cook on medium heat for 5 minutes to combine flavors. Or, if you're really hungry, just dish up! It's ready to eat!

Sprinkle 1/4 cup of crunchy chow mein noodles over the top and the flavor and crunch is wonderful.
