Jamaican Pork Chops

Jamaican Pork Chops

Serves 3 (easily doubled).

A fruitier Jamaican Jerk flavor. We had planned on grilling these, but when the grill gave us trouble, when ended up cooking them inside. Thus, the grill marks I was relying on didn't happen.

1/3 c. prepared Italian salad dressing

1/6 c. Frank's Red Hot Sauce

1/6 c. freshly-squeezed lime juice

1 T. brown sugar

1 t. dried thyme leaves

1/2 t. ground allspice

1/4 t. ground nutmeg

1/4 t. ground cinnamon

3 pork chops, cut 1" thick (about 1-1/4 lbs.)

Place salad dressing, hot sauce, lime juice, sugar, and seasonings in a blender or food processor. Cover and process until smooth.

Place pork chops in a large resealable plastic bag. Pour marinade over chops. Seal bag and marinate in refrigerator for at least 1 hour. You can also freeze, if desired.

Grill over medium heat for about 30 minutes, or until pork is juicy and barely pink in he center, turning and basting frequently with marinade.
