Plantation-Style Grilled Pork Chops

A tangy molasses marinade gives these grilled chops a Southern drawl. Serve with cornbread, green beans and mashed sweet potatoes.

Recipe Ingredients:

4 pork chops, 1 1/2-inches thick
1/3 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup molasses
1/2 cup prepared mustard
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Cooking Directions:

1. Place chops in self-sealing plastic bag.
2. In small bowl stir together remaining ingredients and pour over chops. Seal bag and let stand at room temperature for one hour, or refrigerate overnight.
3. Remove chops from marinade, discarding remaining marinade.
4. Grill over a medium-hot fire for 12 to 15 minutes, turning as necessary to brown evenly.

Makes 4 servings.
