Grilled Pineapple Pork Chops

from Six Sisters Cook Book pg. 28

Ingredients:

1 (20 oz) can pineapple rings, juice reserved
1/2 C light brown sugar
1/2 C soy sauce
1/2 tsp garlic powder
4-6 pork chops

Directions:
Mix together pineapple juice (reserved from the can of pineapple rings), brown sugar, soy sauce, and garlic powder in a large resealable plastic bag until all the sugar is dissolved. Add pork chops and zip closed. Store in the fridge 8-12 hrs.

When ready to cook, preheat grill to medium-high heat. Remove chops from bag and place on grill. Brush pork chops with marinade while they are cooking to let the flavor soak in.

Grill until pork chops are browned and no longer pink inside (about 6-8 min. per side, depending on thickness of chops). Internal Temperature should register 145 degrees F.

While chops are cooking, place pineapple rings on grill and cook until they are warmed through and have slight grill marks on them. Serve pork chops with grilled pineapple on top.

Makes 4-6 servings.
