Mesquite Grilled Pork Chops image

This recipe comes from Weber's Big Book of Grilling. I have to admit I was skeptical when I read the list of ingredients for the paste - I just wasn't sure if I would like the flavor combinations. DH cooked these to perfection and the flavor was great. I highly recommend this recipe for grilled pork chops.
