These Hawaiian Grilled Pork Chops are so easy to make and great for grilling season.
Grilling pork chops is a great way to cook them. (Well almost any way is a great way to cook pork chops.)
The grill adds a nice smokiness and carmelization that is perfect with any meat.
This particular marinade for grilled pork chops is very tasty. The mix of soy sauce and brown sugar is perfect for pork.
Just grilling the chops for a short while adds lots of flavor.
As with any grill recipes, this pork chop recipe can be cooked on the barbecue, on an indoor electric grill or on a stove top grill pan.
The barbecue of course, whether coals or gas, give the meat a wonderful flavor that can’t be duplicated. That said, don’t let that stop you from making these wonderful pork chops any time of the year on any type of grill. They are really good and if you like pork and pineapple, you won’t want to miss them.
I hope you enjoy them.

Pour the mixture over the pork chops. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours. Remove the chops, reserving the marinade.

Nutrition
Tips:
- Use fresh pineapple if you prefer. The taste of fresh grilled pineapple is really magnificent. If using fresh, replace the canned juice with either canned pineapple juice or orange juice.
Omit the sugar in the marinade for a more suitable diabetic recipe. without the sugar the carb count isn’t too bad. And you really don’t need it in my opinion. It tastes great without the sugar.
