Ingredients

1/3 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup whiskey
2 tablespoons molasses
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 teaspoon red pepper sauce
1 large sweet onion, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
2 medium tomatoes, cut in half
4 bone-in pork loin or rib chops, 1/2 inch thick (1 lb), trimmed of fat
Chopped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley if desired

Steps:

Spray grill rack with cooking spray. Heat gas or charcoal grill. In 1-quart saucepan, stir mustard, brown sugar, whiskey, molasses, vinegar and pepper sauce with whisk. Cook over medium-low heat 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Remove from heat. Pour 1/4 cup of the sauce into small bowl.
Generously brush cut sides of onion slices and tomato halves with 2 tablespoons of the sauce in bowl. Generously brush pork chops with half of the remaining sauce in pan. Place pork, onions and tomatoes, cut sides down, on grill over medium heat. Brush tops of onions and tomatoes with remaining 2 tablespoons sauce in bowl. Brush tops of pork chops with remaining sauce in pan.
Cover grill; cook 5 to 7 minutes, turning pork and onions once (do not turn tomatoes), until pork is no longer pink in center, onions are crisp-tender and tomatoes are tender. Discard any remaining sauce. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
