How to Make Soy Marinated Chops

  1. In a bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, 1/4 cup dry sherry, 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger, and 1 tablespoon garlic powder.
  2. Add your chops (approx. 1.5 lbs) to a resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chops, ensuring they are fully coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  3. Remove the chops from the marinade and set aside. Add 2 tablespoons of molasses to the remaining marinade, whisking to combine.
  4. Preheat your grill to medium-low heat. Grill the chops for approximately 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches your desired doneness (135-145°F for medium-rare venison, 145-160°F for pork). Baste the chops frequently with the molasses-enhanced marinade.
  5. Allow the chops to rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. If using venison, use a meat thermometer to ensure it's cooked to a safe internal temperature (at least 145°F).
  6. Serve and enjoy your incredibly flavorful and juicy soy marinated chops!
