4 to 6 loin pork chops, with a large section of tenderloin, cut at least 1 1/2 inches thick
3/4 cup soy sauce
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp ketchup
1 medium onion, chopped
1 to 2 garlic cloves, minced
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Put the pork chops in a glass dish or plastic bag.
Mix together remaining ingredients and pour over chops. Refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours (no more than 4 or all you will taste is soy sauce). Turn chops from time to time.
Grill chops over hot coals in a covered cooker for 3 to 4 minutes per side. Then stand the chops up on their chine bones, cover the cooker and grill for exactly 14 minutes. That’s it! Pork chops to perfection.
Serves 4 to 6.
Note: The marinade may be saved in the refrigerator for 1 more batch of chops.
