Instructions
Combine all of the ingredients, except for the pork chops, in a bag that seals.
Add pork chops to bag and turn to coat all sides. Alternatively, marinate pork chops in glass baking dish.
Marinate pork chops for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Remove pork chops from marinade and discard excess.
Grill for approximately 4-5 minutes on each side, depending upon the thickness of the meat. Or broil for about the same amount of time with rack about 3-4 inches from the heating element.
Notes
Note that the nutritional estimates assumes ALL of the marinade is consumed. Make ahead and freeze by adding uncooked pork chops to marinade in a bag that seals. Turn to coat. Store up to 2 months for best quality. Make two batches to use up a 12 ounce bottle of molasses. Another option is to make up the marinade without adding the meat. Nice on pork tenderloin and chicken too.
