Grilled Teriyaki Pork Chops

chelgilm's Note:

I found this recipe off of food networks website. This is a recipe of Sara Moultons. I thought it was really good.

• Total Time: 1 hrs 15 mins
• Prep Time: 1 hrs
• Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

For marinade

• 2⁄3; cup soy sauce
• 1⁄3; cup firmly packed light brown sugar
• 1⁄3; cup water
• ¼ cup rice vinegar
• 3 garlic cloves , chopped fine
• 2 inches piece fresh gingerroot , peeled and chopped fine
• 6 (1 inch) thick pork chops (I use thinner pork chops and just watch cooking time)

Directions:

1. Marinade: In a saucepan combine marinade ingredients and bring to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved.
2. Cool marinade completely.
3. Put chops in a large resealable plastic bag and pour marinade over them. Seal bag, pressing out excess air, and set in a dish.
4. Marinate meat overnight or a couple of hours in fridge, turning once or twice.
5. Pour marinade into a saucepan and boil 5 minutes.
6. Grill chops on an oiled rack set about 4 inches over glowing coals 7 to 8 minutes on each side, or until just cooked through, basting with marinade during last 5 minutes of cooking.

I made these for dinner last night to go along with soy roasted potatoes. I liked that it didn't have any oil or fats in the marinade and was very tasty. I have made a few other teriyaki sauces that don't require the pre-cooking and cool time prior to marinading and would probably stick with them because of the simplicity and no difference in flavor intensity. Thanks for posting.

I made these for dinner the other night and they are fantastic!! I marinaded them for about 24 hours. They were so tender and delicious! I served with Shanghai Noodles and we had a great dinner! Thanks for posting a keeper!
