Virgil's "Top Secret" Pork Chop Marinade

This is my father-in-law Virgil's famous "top secret" pork chop marinade with apple cider vinegar that also works on beef and chicken. He developed it with his brother. "Top secret" means that he shared it with everyone for the last 20 years (even my brother, who is no relation to Virgil), but he would never share it with me until recently. I gave him so much grief about it that he finally shared it with me. I know what you're thinking, "Virgil didn't share it with you because he didn't want it blabbed on the internet." Nope. He only did that to pester me. This recipe makes enough marinade for eight chops.
