Instructions

Make the Marinade
- In a bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, grainy mustard, vinegar, soy sauce, and chopped garlic.
Marinate the Pork
- Place pork chops in a resealable bag or shallow dish.
- Pour the marinade over the chops, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 8 hours.
Grill the Chops
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- Remove pork chops from marinade and pat off excess (optional: reserve marinade and simmer for sauce).
- Season chops with salt and pepper.
- Grill 4–5 minutes per side or until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Rest and Serve
- Let pork rest for 5 minutes before serving. Drizzle with reduced marinade or serve as is.

Notes

Tip: For extra flavor, baste with reserved marinade during grilling (boil it for 2–3 minutes first).

Alternate cooking: These can also be pan-seared or baked if a grill isn’t available.

Sides: Great with grilled veggies, mashed potatoes, or a crisp summer salad.
