 *sweet potatoes can also be canned. Cut each one in half. Trim excess fat 
 from chops, try out in a heavy skillet. Skim out browned fat pieces, brown 
 chops well on both sides. Lay on paper towels to drain.
 
  In a shallow casserole arrange the pineapple. Lay the chops on top, and 
 the potatoes over that.  Heat the pineapple liquid to boiling. Stir in 
 brown sugar, cornstarch and salt, stirring until syrup is clear and 
 thickened. Stir the sherry and butter into the hot syrup, pour over 
 casserole. Bake at 350, covered, 1 hour. During last 15 minutes, uncover, 
 and complete cooking. 94-07-23 -- Granma
