This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth the effort. The pork is fall-off-the-bone tender and the rice is perfectly cooked. I would definitely make it again for a special occasion.

I'm not a big fan of pork, but this dish was surprisingly good. The apples and cinnamon really complemented the flavor of the pork. I would definitely make it again.

I tried this recipe and it was a disaster. The pork was tough and the rice was mushy. I won't be making it again.
