  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  • 6 oz molasses
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ¾ tsp cayenne pepper

Directions

Place pork chops in a large zip-top bag. Combine liquid ingredients and pour into bag. Marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.

3

Boil marinade for 10 minutes.

4

Place pork on grill and cook 2 minutes, brushing with marinade, before rotating 90 degrees to get nice grill marks. Cook another 2 minutes, brushing.
