Grilled Pineapple is one of Sweet Harold's favorite things. Grilled pork (in any form) is one of my favorite things. When both are on the grill, we're both happy! The sweetness of the pineapple is delicious with the grilled pork.
I'm always on the lookout for new products to try and the Lawry's Teriyaki and Pineapple Marinade seemed like the perfect start for this meal. Adding a few tablespoons of the pineapple juice from the canned pineapple boosts the pineapple flavor for those who love that fruit!
2 lb. boneless pork chops
1/3 cup Lawry's Teriyaki 30 minute marinade with pineapple juice
1 can pineapple slices in syrup (reserve a few tablespoons of syrup)
Pour marinade into a glass bowl or heavy duty Ziploc bag. Place pork chops into the marinade and turn to completely coat.
Let rest in marinade for 30 - 40 minutes.
Prepare charcoal or gas grill. When coals (or grill) are ready, place pork onto the grill and let cook for 5 - 6 minutes. Rotate pork chops a quarter turn. Let cook for another 4 - 5 minutes and then turn over to repeat the process on the other side. Discard marinade.
While pork is grilling, drain pineapple slices and pat dry. Place on grill and cook until both sides have nice grill marks and have begun to slightly char.
Mix 1/4 cup of the marinade with 1 - 2 T. of the reserved pineapple juice. Brush over pork chops and pineapple slices during the last few minutes of grilling.
Cook pork until the chops have reached an internal temperature of 175 degrees F.
Serve the grilled pineapple slices alongside the pork chops with rice and/or a nice green salad.
