Ingredients
- 4 pork chops bone-in, thick-cut
- 1/3 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon mustard powder
- 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper optional
Instructions
- In a deep bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, vinegar, mustard and olive oil.
- Add the pork chops to the bowl and turn to coat completely. Optional: cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
- Preheat an outdoor grill to high heat or about 450°F.
- Remove the chops from the marinade and place on the grill. Discard the remaining marinade.
- Place the marinated pork chop on the grill. Cover the lid and cook for 2-3 minutes, flip and cook another 2-3 minutes.
- Move the chops to indirect heat to cook for 8-15 minutes longer (see note).
- Remove the chops to a plate and allow to rest for 5 minutes, covered lightly with foil. (This allows the juices to retreat back into the meat.) Serve and enjoy!
