Frozen lemonade concentrate + soy sauce + seasonings = some darn good pork chops. Wow, the lemon flavor is instantly recognizable but not too overpowering. My pork chops were from Costco (that means they were THICK), so I marinated them for two days. I baked mine at 350 degrees for 40 minutes because of the cold weather here. I cannot wait to try them on the grill. Serve with something that will enhance the lemon flavor, like asparagus or green beans. Great recipe.

These were very good. However, due to the busy-ness of our lives, I left these in the marinade for two days. Guess what? That improved the flavor! Will make again!

My husband said this was one of the best marinades I have ever tried. He even went so far as to ask me to try it on steak next time. :o)

I knew I was taking a chance when I tried this recipe, but I had to. Boy, am I glad I did. My husband went nuts over it. The only change I made was to use pork steaks instead of chops because that's what I had. For the sake of my marriage, I will be making these again and again.

Really a great recipe. The marinade is good with chicken too. Try thinly sliced onions on top of the chops before baking; 350 degrees for about 45 minutes, until nicely browned. The onion adds a nice flavor.

I rarely make marinades because my husband prefers a rub, but tried this while he was at work. I poked holes in the chops and we grilled them. He really liked it and we will make this again. I think that I will try it with a touch of lemon pepper next time and eliminate one of the salts.

Absolutely scrumptious! Mine took a little longer to cook because the chops were quite thick - about 15 minutes on each side under the broiler. Served with steamed rich topped with cream of mushroom,and fresh broccoli steamed and topped with cheddar cheese! Yummy!
