Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425.

Lay four 12"x18" pieces of aluminum foil or parchment paper on work surface. Lightly coat with no stick spray.

In large bowl, combine the ketchup, brown sugar, soy sauce, oil, chili powder, allspice, and pepper. Add the pork, potatoes, onions, celery and carrots and toss until coated.

Place 1 pork chop on each piece of foil or paper and divide the vegetables and sauce evenly over the pork.

Fold the long sides of the foil or paper together, making several folds to encase the food snugly. Fold the ends closed, like a package, to enclose securely.

Lay the packets, seam side up, on a baking sheet. Bake for 30 - 35 minutes, or until pork and vegetables are tender when pierced with a fork. Be careful of escaping steam when opening the packets.
