Korean Barbecue Wet Rub

Serves 4

1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons dark sesame oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
4 pork loin chops

1. Preheat grill.
2. Combine all ingredients. (Can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 1 week at this point). Rub marinade onto pork chops and grill until finished.

Served with Sesame Cucumber Salad and Mac & Cheese

Results: I so cheated on this dish and made Mac & Cheese for Steven to eat. My requirement was that he could have the Mac & Cheese after he ate one bite of pork without gagging. You should have seen him struggle to eat this teeny, tiny dime-sized bite of pork! He finally did, and got his Mac & Cheese. Henry had no problem eating his, but didn't like the cucumber salad. (Not surprising.) This rub is very easy to prepare and very delicious! (The recipe says it can also be rubbed on salmon, steaks or chicken.)
