Steps:
- For the pork chops: Season the pork chops with salt and pepper; set aside while making the glaze.
- Add the apricot preserves, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, orange zest and juice and habanero to a small pot and bring to a simmer. Simmer until the sauce is reduced and thickened, 10 to 15 minutes; let cool. Divide the glaze between 2 bowls, reserving 1 bowl for basting and one for serving with the cooked chops.
- Preheat a grill to medium-high heat. Coat the grates with plenty of vegetable oil to help create a nonstick surface.
- Using a brush, coat the chops with the first round of glaze. Place them on the grill glazed-side down and grill without moving until the glaze begins to caramelize, about 5 minutes. Brush the tops with glaze, flip the chops, brush the other side with more glaze and continue cooking until the chops are caramelized, charred and sticky and the internal temperature registers 135 degrees F, another 7 to 10 minutes. Discard the basting glaze. Let the chops rest for 5 to 10 minutes, coating them once with the reserved serving glaze while resting.
- For the relish: Combine the mint, apple, bell pepper, scallion and lime zest and juice in a bowl and toss to coat.
- Top the pork chops with some green apple relish and serve with the remaining serving glaze and relish.

PORK CHOPS OR PORK RIBS WITH APRICOT PINEAPPLE SAUCE
Meat is browned with fat drained. Ribs are cut in 2 or 3 rib pieces The sauce is poured over and the meat is baked . Everything can be made ahead of time, refrigerated and then baked. I like to use pork chops but any type of chop can be used, venison, elk, buffalo or beef round steak cut in serving pieces. Grilled pineapple can be served as a side dish with rice or noodles or mashed potatoes. The recipe started from using pineapple juice thickened with cornstarch and soaked dried apricots; years ago there was not combination preserves to the present recipe posted.Photos show pork chops, steak and maui maui fish. It is delicious with all meats.

Steps:
- Combine first seven ingredients well, set aside half of mixture and refrigerate.
- Combine the other half of the soy sauce mixture with the pork in a mixing bowl.
- Cover pork mixture with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Allow to marinate for at least one hour.
- Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat and add sesame oil.
- When oil is hot, but not smoking, add pork mixture and cook until just barely cooked through- approximately 4-6 minutes.
- Remove pork from skillet/wok with a slotted spoon and put aside in a clean bowl.
- Add the vegetables to the pan and cook, stirring frequently until crisp-tender. You may want to add them in order of density to keep from overcooking some of them (e.g. carrots first, then broccoli, then mushrooms last).
- When the vegetables are just cooked enough, add the pork back to the skillet/wok and then the reserved half of the soy sauce mixture.
- Cook, stirring a couple of times, for about one minute more, until sauce is thickened.
- Serve, over steamed rice if desired.

Tips:
- Choose the right ribs: Look for ribs that have good marbling and a nice, even color. Avoid ribs that are too thin or too fatty.
- Prep the ribs: Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs and cut them into individual portions.
- Make the rub: Combine the spices and seasonings in a bowl and rub it all over the ribs. Make sure to get the rub into all the nooks and crannies.
- Cook the ribs: You can cook the ribs in the oven, on the grill, or in a smoker. The cooking time will vary depending on the method you choose, but the ribs are done when they are fall-off-the-bone tender.
- Make the sauce: While the ribs are cooking, make the sauce. Combine the habanero peppers, apricots, vinegar, brown sugar, and spices in a saucepan and simmer until the sauce has thickened.
- Glaze the ribs: Once the ribs are cooked, brush them with the sauce and cook them for a few minutes more. This will help the sauce to caramelize and give the ribs a beautiful glaze.
Conclusion:
Pork spareribs in habanero and apricot sauce are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The ribs are tender and juicy, with a slightly spicy and sweet flavor. The sauce is also very flavorful and adds a nice touch of heat to the ribs. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
