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.

Black Pepper Chops with Molasses Butter

4 boneless center loin chops, 1 1/2-inch thick

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

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

Makes 4 servings.
