Amazing Grilled Pork Chop Marinade

I’m actually not that big a fan of pork chops. I love the way my mom cooks them slowly in mushroom sauce in the oven, but any time I try to do this with my slow cooker…my pork dries out and is crumbly (I have no idea why!). My dad used to grill the best pork chops in a honey mustard sauce that were to die for…but (no offense, darling) my husband has had no luck with the same sauce, same method. Something about dad’s grilling skills that I miss dearly.

I do like pork, and it’s a great meat to add to our menu plan rotation, so I was thrilled to discover this amazing pork chop marinade for grilling chops at the end of the summer, and it’s been a hit every time. Time to share it!

You will need:

• 2 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp oregano
• 2/3 cup canola oil
• ¹⁄₂ cup lemon juice
• ¹⁄₂ cup soy sauce
• 2 tbsp brown sugar
• Pepper to taste
• 4-6 pork chops (whatever cut you’d like)

Simply place pork chops in marinading container or Ziploc bag, combine the rest of the marinading ingredients into a small bowl and whisk until well combined and pour over pork chops! Voila! Put in refrigerator, of course, and remove from refrigerator 1 hour before you are going to grill. Grill to your taste making sure that the internal temp reaches 160ºF. (I leave the grilling to my husband!).

We’ve tried this with thicker-cut chops (as pictured) and thinner bone-in pork chops and they both tasted amazing.
