You can have tender Bbq pork chops each and every time you barbecue if you take a few extra steps in your preparation. It admittedly is that easy. Oh my goodness, most citizen think pork chops have to be dry and flavorless, but the reality is so much separate than that.
* two pork chops
* 1/4 cup plus 1 tbsp. Lemon juice
* 3 tbsp. Soy sauce
* 1 tbsp. Extra-virgin olive oil
* 1/2 tsp. Light brown sugar
* 1/4 tsp. Fresh or dried rosemary
* salt and pepper to taste
Now I did not put garlic in there, but if you ask me garlic goes in almost everything so I would add some chopped or minced garlic to the marinade. You want to bring home the best that you can afford, not cheap pork chops. Pork loin chops are the ones that are the most tender, but sometimes the T-bone chops will work just as well.
And do not buy thin, thin, thin, thinking that you are going to save money. The flavor, taste, and texture will not be there. It does not pay to scrimp sometimes and this is one of those times. Then you will have citizen eat these and they will be turned off to pork thinking all pork chops are the same.
And That Is naturally Not True!
