This is my favorite pork chop recipe by far! Since I only used two thin t-bone pork chops, I cut everything in half. At first I wasn't sure if this was enough marinade. So instead of pouring the sauce in the bag, I rolled the porkchops in the sauce and marinaded for 20 minutes. I also realize now that I accidentally used black pepper instead of red pepper. AND IT STILL TURNED OUT GREAT! My sister and I practically licked the t-bones clean. YUMMY!

I made a batch of the marinate but on tasting it I found that the vinegar gave it quite a bite. I dumped that batch and remade it, substituting balsamic vinegar for half of the cider vinegar. The pork chops turned out fantastically flavorful and moist after marinating for 3 hours. We dripped the remaining marinate over the chops as they grilled. Yummmmm, thank you Jude!
