Grill pork chops over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes per side or until desired doneness, brushing with reserved marinade halfway through cooking. Serve pork chops with Pineapple Salsa.
Test Kitchen Tip:
Reverse Sear Method for pork chops thicker than 1 inch: Prepare grill for indirect medium heat (350°F to 375°F). Preheat grill by turning all burners to medium. Turn off burner(s) on one side of grill. Grill pork chops over unlit side, with grill covered, to internal temperature of 135°F to 140°F. Move pork chops to lit side of grill. Grill until pork chops are nicely charred and desired doneness (At internal temperature of 145°F, pork chops will be cooked through and a little pink inside. You may prefer to cook a little longer, however try not to exceed internal temperature of 160°F or pork will be overcooked.) Let stand 5 minutes.
