Apple Pork Chops

From my sister.

Ingredients:

3 lbs. boneless sirloin pork chops ( I used really thick cut so they were nice and juicy)
2 cups Apple cider
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 onion, sliced
6 gala apples, peeled, cored, sliced
1 TBSP olive oil
1-3 inch cinnamon stick ( I just dumped in some ground cinnamon)
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 tsp. kosher salt
2 ozs. Jack Daniel's Whiskey (I left this out and it was still good)

Directions:

Marinade the pork chops in 1 cup of the apple cider, apple cider vinegar and the onion slices for 6 to 12 hours. Remove chops from the marinade, season with the salt and pepper, grill over a medium-hot flame until cooked throughly 150 degrees.

While the chops are grilling, heat the virgin olive oil in a sauce pan over high heat (I'm thinking a frying pan might work better to brown the apples, mine got soft but not brown).  Add the sliced apples and cook until one side is browned.  Stir the apples and add the cinnamon, salt, pepper and remaining cup of apple cider. Bring to a simmer. Just before serving, remove the apples from the heat and add the Jack Daniels.

Serve the apples over the pork chops (the kids liked it next to it better. I liked it on it)
