Ingredients
- 4 thick-cut pork chops
- 1/2 cup soju
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the soju, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, sesame oil, and black pepper. Whisk together until the sugar is dissolved.
- Add the pork chops to the marinade, making sure they are fully coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or ideally overnight for maximum flavor absorption.
- When you’re ready to cook, preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat.
- Remove the pork chops from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Discard the marinade.
- Add the vegetable oil to the skillet or brush it onto the grill. Place the pork chops on the grill or in the skillet.
- Cook the pork chops for about 6-8 minutes on each side or until they are cooked through and have a nice char. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
- Once cooked, remove the chops from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes to retain their juices.
- Slice and serve garnished with chopped green onions.
