Ingredients

  • 1 ½cupslemon juice

  • 1 ½cupshoney

  • 2tablespoonsWorcestershire sauce

  • 1clovegarlic, minced

  • ¼teaspoondried basil

  • 4center-cut pork chops, 1/2-inch thick

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Cooking Directions

  1. Mix lemon juice, honey, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and basil together in a bowl. Pour 1/2 of the marinade into a resealable plastic bag; place pork chops in the bag, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (overnight is best). Refrigerate the remaining marinade for basting.

  2. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

  3. Remove chops from the bag and discard the used marinade. Sprinkle chops with salt and black pepper.

  4. Grill chops on the preheated grill until browned and no longer pink inside, 20 to 25 minutes. Baste frequently with reserved marinade, being sure to let the mixture cook onto the chops. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of a chop should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
