A richly golden-colored glossy surface greets you when these moist, richly-flavored chops are set out. We honestly found the flavor a little stronger than we wanted, mostly in the soy sauce component; but also we suspect that most people will love exactly that and might even sprinkle on a little cayenne. We enjoyed them!

The base of this recipe made me the perfect pork chop!! <br/><br/>I used the posted recipe but due to being low on soy, I didn't have enough to bast with. I marinated with given sauce-then for basting I used italian dressing. Paired it with red potatoes marinated in olive oil, from our garden rosemary, garlic, butter and a pinch of salt-then placed on the grill. <br/><br/>Side dish was fresh green beans cooked over sauteed garlic, butter and almonds. <br/><br/>Topped my list of one of the best things I have ever cooked. Thank you!!!

The flavor of the pork chops from the marinade is outstanding! I did not get to cook mine on the grill (last minute change of plans), but they were still tasty from the oven. I used boneless chops, as it is what I had on hand, and we certainly enjoyed them! The marinade goes together quickly and imparts great flavor! Thanks so much for sharing, diner!

These were tasty and very tender. I used Mr. Yoshida's traditional teriyaki sauce instead of the soy sauce, I added 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, white pepper, crushed red pepper flakes, fresh grated garlic, and fresh grated gingerroot. I served them with Anything Lo Mein (from this site) and egg rolls. What a yummy dinner. I will definitely use this marinade again. Thank you for posting!
