Black Pepper Chops with Molasses Butter

These pork chops are amazing! I didn't really know what to expect. I got the recipe from those little recipe cards they give you in the grocery store... it sounded very unique and I thought they would either be awesome or terrible. They were better than awesome - sooooo delicious-melt in your mouth! Can't wait for you to try them!



4 pork loin chops,
1 1/2 inches thick
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 Tb molasses
1/2 tsp lemon juice
4 Tb coarsely ground black pepper

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