BLACK PEPPER CHOPS WITH MOLASSES BUTTER

Serves 4.

Ingredients

• 4 boneless center loin chops, 1½-inch thick

• 1/4 cup butter
• 1 tablespoons molasses
• 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
• 4 tablespoons coarsely ground black pepper
 

Cooking Directions

In small bowl blend butter, molasses and lemon juice with fork.
Cover and refrigerate.
Rub chops on both sides evenly with pepper.
Grill chops over a medium-hot fire for 12-15 minutes, turning once.
Top each chop with a tablespoon of molasses butter.
 

Serving Suggestions

There’s almost nothing to compare to the aroma of pork on the grill; and these chops live up to that taste memory. The molasses butter adds an unexpected and pleasant flavor punch to chops hot-off-the-grill.
