Step 1

1. Preheat grill to medium. Place rack 6 inches from heat.

2. For sauce, combine brown sugar, apple juice, vegetable oil, soy sauce, ginger, black pepper and salt in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring continually, until brown sugar is dissolved and mixture is smooth.

3. Combine cold water and cornstarch in a small bowl and mix well. Add to the brown sugar mixture and mix well. Cook mixture, stirring continually, until thickened, about 3 to 4 minutes.

4. Grill pork chops, turning once, for 10 minutes. Brush with sauce. Grill, turning and brushing with sauce, until juices run clear when meat is pierced with a knife, about 5 minutes.
