Balsamic Grilled Pork Chops
Serves 2 or more, depending on the meat selection you make. This recipes marinade is good for Chops or tenderloins (whole) or medallions.



Sorry, ate them up before I remembered to take a picture of them all cooked up...you'll just have to trust that this was wonderful!

Ingredients
 2 Pork Chops – MINIMUM of 1.25” (or substitute whole tenderloins or tenderloins cut into ½” medallions)
 1 Cup EVOO
 ¼ Cup Basil (chopped fresh if you have it)
 ½ Cup Parsley (chopped fresh if you have it)
 5 Large Garlic Cloves (minced)
 1/3 Cup Balsamic Vinegar (to taste and size of meat portions)

Preparation
1. Combine ingredients in a mixing bowl and pour over Chops in a shallow square pan or substitute a 1 gallon freezer bag and mix/shake.
2. Place in refrigerator for 4 hours minimum and turn occasionally.
3. Remove chops from marinade and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes (discard remaining marinade).
4. While the chops are coming up to room temperature fire up the Big Green Egg and bring to a stabilized temperature of about 350 degrees.
5. Place chops directly on the grill for approximately 6 minutes per side (lid down and no peeking).
6. When internal temperature reaches 150 degrees remove from grill and let stand for at least 5 minutes before serving.

The recipe sounds great. I love thick chops and I love basalmic vinegar. Would love to see a picture of the cooked results.

They cook up something resembling a t-rex because the parsley gets dark...these were over 1.25" and very juicy. Sorry, forgot to take the pics...

Great recipe. I love balsamic flavors and of course you really can't argue with some nice chops.

Thanks for posting it.
