Instructions

  • Blend water, lemon juice, onion, brown sugar, green onion, oil, salt, allspice, cinnamon, black pepper, thyme, and cayenne pepper in a blender or food processor until smooth. Reserve 1/2 cup for basting.
  • Place pork chops into a shallow glass dish. Pour remaining marinade over chops, then cover and refrigerate for at least 12 hours, but no longer than 24 hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Place the grate 4 to 5 inches above the heat source.
  • Remove pork chops from marinade and shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade.
  • Arrange chops on the preheated grill, cover, and cook until no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
