Grilled Ginger-Soy Pork Chops

Kalyn's Kitchen is responsible for bringing us our next wonderful Memorial Day grilling recipe.  Here we have a wonderful pork chop dish that is marinated and basted with a delicious ginger soy sauce.  This is guaranteed to leave your guests wanting the recipe.  Enjoy!

Grilled Ginger-Soy Pork Chops

Ingredients
  • 4-6 boneless pork chops
Marinade
  • 1/4 cup peanut oil
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar (not seasoned rice vinegar, it contains sugar)
  • 1 tsp dried chili pepper flakes (I used Aleppo Pepper. You could use cayenne pepper, but reduce the amount by quite a bit.)
  • 2 tsp ginger puree (also called ground ginger)
  • 2 tsp garlic puree (also called ground garlic)
  • 1 tsp dried mustard
Directions
  1. Trim all fat from pork chops and pound to slightly over 1/4 inch thick. (If you're using the very thick pork chops you might want to cut them in half crosswise.) 
  2. Mix marinade ingredients. Put pork chops in zip-loc bag and pour marinade over. Marinate 6-8 hours or longer.
  3. To cook, preheat grill to medium hot. To get those nice grill marks, rotate the pork chops after about 4 minutes on the first side.  Cook about 8 minutes per side; total cooking time will depend on the temperature of your grill and the thickness of the pork chops. 
  4. Pork chops should feel firm to the touch but not hard when they're done.
  5. Serve hot.
