Preparation

Step 1

Preheat electric grill for 5 minutes or gas barbecue to high (see Note). Cook pork chops in several batches on greased grill for about 1 minute per side until grill marks appear. Transfer to greased large roasting pan.

Layer onion rings on top of pork chops.

Big Batch BBQ Sauce: Combine all 9 ingredients in large saucepan. Bring to a boil on medium-high. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, uncovered, for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Pour over onion. Cover. Bake in 325ºF (160ºC) oven for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, turning chops once, until tender. Serves 25.

Note: If preferred, heat a small amount of cooking oil in a large frying pan on medium-high. Cook the chops in several batches for about 1 minute per side until browned.

Variation: Omit the bone-in pork chops. Use 12 to 15 boneless pork shoulder butt steaks, halved, to make an economical batch that serves 24 to 30.
