My goal this week is to really focus on things that I am thankful for (even things that might not seem like a blessing . . . such as that blasted alarm clock!).
One thing that I am thankful for . . . .
SUMMER!
I love warm weather, being able to spend lots of time outside, and eating yummy food that my husband grills (that’s right . . . he is the grill master in our family. I don’t even know how to work the grill . . . I am afraid that I would burn my house down!).
And I am thankful for easy and yummy recipes that require few ingredients, but still taste amazing . . . just like this one (how about that for tying this post into the recipe?!)! 🙂
Serves: 6
Grilled Pineapple Pork Chops Recipe
A yummy dinner with only a few ingredients!
Ingredients
- 20 ounces sliced pineapple 1 can, reserve juice
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup soy sauce
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 6 pork chops
Instructions
- Mix together the pineapple juice (reserved from the can of pineapple slices), brown sugar, soy sauce, and garlic powder together in a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag until all the sugar is dissolved. Add the pork chops and zip closed. Store in the fridge for 8-12 hours (the longer, the better!).
- 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 really soak in.
- Grill until pork chops are browned and no longer pink inside (about 6-8 minutes per side- depending on thickness of chops).
- 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.

Hi! Really want to try this marinade but it says "1/2 soy sauce" I NEED to know what the measurements are on this lol I can't wait to try it!!
-
In your recipe for Grilled Pineapple pork chops you state 1/2 soy sauce. How much, 1/2 cup or 1/2 something else?
-
These were wonderful. My son who does not like pork loved them. At first he thought they were chicken. All 9 of my family said I can make these again!
-
Is there anyway you could post a "Print" link with your recipes, or maybe I am missing it?
-
I planned to bbq these yesterday but was invited to dinner instead, so I've had them marinating over 24 hours in the fridge would they still be good for dinner tonight? Or is that too long to marinate? Thanks~!
-
This is not about chops sorry but does anybody have a recipe for liver and onions in the air fryer I see everything else just not that so please help me

These are the best!!! Let them marinate longer to get the best flavor. I add ginger to mine and serve with fried rice! YUMTASTIC!
-
This was super easy to make and super yummy!!

I cooked these tonight on the George Foreman grill. They were easy to make and the marinade was really good!
-
I don't care much for pork either, but since we just happen to raise it, I've always got some. This is definitely something I'll try! The marinade sounds delicious.

Even though I enjoy your blog, I wish that there was a way to print out just the recipe. Am I missing something somewhere that would allow me to do that? Love your site and your recipes.

Can't locate your 'print recipe' icon...

Wow these were shockingly good. I thought with such a simple recipe it'd be kinda bland but it's not.
