• For the pork and marinade: Place the pork chops in a 1- gallon resealable plastic bag. Combine the remaining marinade ingredients (except for the neutral oil) in a mini food processor and process until incorporated, or whisk together in a medium bowl. This will be your marinade and glaze.
• Coat the pork chops liberally with the marinade and marinate for 3 hours and up to overnight in the refrigerator.
• Prepare a grill by heating one side to high and the other to low. Alternatively, heat a large grill pan over 2 burners -- one on high heat and the other turned off. Clean and grease the grates.

Baste with the reserved marinade then rotate a quarter turn and grill until you have a nice crosshatch mark, another 4 to 6 minutes. Flip over and repeat the grilling, basting and turning.
