Ingredients
- 6 whole bone-in center cut pork chops
- ½ cup honey
- 1 cup Fresh orange juice
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
- ½ teaspoon Cardamom ground
- 2 cloves; minced garlic
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Combine 2 tbsp. honey, orange juice, zest, garlic cardamom, salt and pepper.
- Place pork chops in a zip lock bag or large dish. We had to use 2 dishes due to the sizes of our pork chops.
- Pour the mixture over the pork chops and allow to marinade for 30-60 minutes.
- Remove the chops from the marinade.
- Pour the remaining honey and the marinade from the pork chops into a medium saucepan.
- Simmer on low until the marinade volume has been reduced to a glaze texture.
- When the marinade has cooked for at least 10 minutes, place the pork chops on the grill over medium to high heat. Turning once.
- Remove the glaze from the heat and allow to cool for a few minutes.
- Once the porks chops are 3/4 of the way cooked, brush the prepared glaze over the chops. Turn once more and glaze the other side of the chops.
- Remove the chops from the grill once the meat has cooked and allow them to sit for 3 minutes. If you have any glaze left over, pour the remaining mixture over the chops and serve!
