Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

6 center cut, boneless pork chops
1/2 c vegetable oil
1/4 c soy sauce
1/4 c Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp minced garlic
1 tsp cumin
2 Tbsp brown sugar
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

1. Place the pork chops in a casserole dish laying flat.
2. Next mix together the remaining ingredients in a bowl.
3. Puncture the pork chops with a fork all over. Pour the marinade on top of the chops, then refrigerate 4-6 hours - flipping them over once while marinating. Remove from the fridge the last hour before grilling.
4. Grill on med-low for about 5 min on each side, or until cooked through. *I always spoon on the marinade too while they are cooking* Discard marinade when finished cooking.

Tips:

Use thick-cut pork chops for best results. They will hold up better to grilling and stay juicy.
Make sure the pork chops are at room temperature before grilling. This will help them cook evenly.
Season the pork chops generously with cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. This will give them a flavorful crust.
Grill the pork chops over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. Use meat thermometer to check if the internal temperature is at least 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute and make them more tender.
Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, grilled vegetables, or a salad.

Cumin grilled pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion.
