How to Make Quick And Easy Pork Chop Marinade And Basting Sauce

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and 1 teaspoon smoked paprika.
  2. Pour the marinade over pork chops (about 1-inch thick) in a resealable bag or shallow dish. Marinate for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator for maximum flavor.
  3. Preheat your grill, grill pan, or oven to medium-high heat.
  4. Remove pork chops from marinade and discard marinade.
  5. Grill or pan-fry pork chops for 3-4 minutes per side, or until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Baste with remaining marinade during the last few minutes of cooking for extra flavor and a beautiful glaze.
  6. Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
