According to the name of this recipe, it's Apple Cider Glazed "Double Cut" Porkchop with Sweet Potato Hash, Tomato Jam & Southern Greens. Well, try as I might, I can't find the recipe for the Tomato Jam. Also, in the ingredient list, I am directed to make Sweet Potato Has.
Now I know getting these recipes on the list is a bog job, folks, but can we at least expect accurate proofreading? For the record, this is not the first mistake I've found on the recipe page, and I'm sure it won't be the last.

I have worked in the restaurant proffession for over ten years, and I've never tasted a better pork chop than this. Do yourself a favor and try it out. It turned our Sunday night supper into a dining destination.

I have made this one several times now and everytime it's a huge hit. My friends & family love it - the flavors are phenomenal and I even converted a non-pork lover to loving this one!
Once, I couldn't find chorizo and substituted Portuguese sausage instead and that was great too...
An absolute must try - with or without the sides, the pork is wonderful.
