Since the farmers markets in my area recently had an overabundance of grapes on sale, I figured I would go crazy, lol. I asked 1 of the women who ran the market if she had any ideas on what to do w/ so many grapes and she said to try pairing it with pork. I tried several ways and finally came up with this and I must say, what a refreshing sauce instead of the usual mustard honey sauce.
