This is my favorite way to grill pork chops. The meat turns out so moist and tender when it's fixed like this. Usually, I serve the chops with fresh corn on the cob or green beans and dinner rolls. Your family will love it!

This recipe is definately a keeper!!! The pork chops were moist, tender and very flavorful. I marinated for about 8-9 hours but I will let them set overnight next time.....the longer the better, I think.

I was looking for a different but equally tasty recipe for pork chops on the grill and struck gold when I found this one! Delicious!!!!!

Unbelievably delicious - can't wait to make these again! We used boneless chops that were 1 inch thick, and it took 32 minutes to get them done,

These are the best grilled chops.....so tasty and not at all dry! I like to add fresh garlic, Worcestershire sauce and grated fresh ginger to the marinade....also some white or black pepper. Terrific!

This is delicious! The marinade has just the right amount of everything for that sweet-sour taste. Will definitely make again. lmr67
