Pineapple Grilled Pork Chops

Now, on to the good stuff! Here’s what you’ll need to capture that sweet, juicy flavor:

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless pork chops
  • 1 cup of fresh pineapple juice
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh pineapple slices (for grilling!)
  • Chopped green onions (for that fancy touch)

Instructions

  1. First, let’s whip up that marinade! In a bowl, combine the pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix it all together like you’re blending flavors for the next big hit!
  2. Put those pork chops in a resealable plastic bag and pour in the marinade. Seal it tight and give it a good shake. Pop that baby in the fridge for at least 2 hours. Overnight is even better—more time for the flavors to mingle!
  3. When it’s grilling time, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. While you’re waiting, take the chops out of the marinade and let them shake off the excess. Don’t worry, it won’t be lonely.
  4. Grill the pork chops for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach that perfect internal temperature of 145°F. Yum!
  5. Oh, don’t forget about those pineapple slices! Toss them on the grill for a minute or two until they’re lovely and caramelized. They’ll be the cherry on top… or should I say the pineapple?
  6. Serve the pork chops hot off the grill, adorned with those grilled pineapple slices, and sprinkle some chopped green onions over the top. Voila! You’ve just created a tropical masterpiece!
