Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably wouldn't make it again.

This recipe was a disaster! The sauce was way too salty and the pork was tough. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I think it could use more seasoning. I also found that the pork was a bit dry. Next time, I'll marinate the pork overnight before cooking it.

This dish is a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less chili sauce. Otherwise, the recipe is great and the pork is very tender.

This dish is perfect for meal prepping. I made a big batch on Sunday and it lasted me for lunch all week. The leftovers reheat well and still taste just as good.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover pork. I had some pulled pork from a barbecue and it worked perfectly in this recipe. The sauce is flavorful and the peppers add a nice touch of heat.

I made this dish last night and it was a hit! The pork was so tender and the sauce was perfect. I served it over rice and it was the perfect comfort food for a cold night.
