Instructions:After a long hot drive on a summer weekend, we often used to stop at Love's Barbecue near Los Angeles for a barbecued pork sandwich instead of going home to cook supper.
We adored their barbecue and I was amazed to discover that liquid smoke flavoring was the secret of the heady flavor, though smoke poured from what I thought was the barbecue hut.
Commercially prepared smoke flavor is a pure distillate of hickory smoke, but use it with discretion or the concentrated flavor takes on a medicinal taste.
I like only a teaspoonful in this sauce.
Grill the chops 4 to 6 inches above hot coals, turning to cook evenly, until done but not dry.
This will take about 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan at the edge of the grill, combine the catsup, soy sauce, liquid smoke and vinegar.
Stir and heat until well blended.
Brush hot sauce on the chops /and glaze for about 5 minutes over the coals.
Remove the meat to a serving platter and serve with the remaining sauce at the table.
