Pineapple Pork Chops

Ingredients
5 boneless pork chops
1/4 Cup soy sauce
1/4 Cup maple syrup
1 Tablespoon sesame seeds
1 Tablespoon sesame oil
Coarse sea salt and pepper to taste

Cooking Day Ingredients
1/4 Cup maple syrup
1/4 Cup balsamic vinegar
1 can pineapple chinks or fresh pineapple

Freezer Instructions: Prop open a one gallon freezer bag. Add soy sauce, maple syrup, sesame seeds, and sesame oil to the freezer bag. Mix the marinade together by working the outside of the freezer bag with your hand. Salt and pepper the pork chops. Add the pork chops to the bag, and turn to coat. In smaller bag, pour in maple syrup and balsamic vinegar.Squeeze excess air out of the bag, seal, and label the bags with a Sharpie. Lie bag flat in freezer. Freeze.

Cooking Instructions: Thaw on fridge 24 hours. Heat grill to Medium Hot. Place the marinated pork chops on the grill once it has preheated. You can discard the rest of the marinade. Grill the pork chops until done, around 6 minutes per side. While the pork chops are grilling, add maple syrup, balsamic vinegar, and pineapple to a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat for 5-6 minutes, until pineapple starts to break down and create its own syrup goodness! Serve the pork chops hot with pineapple on top.
