Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup strong coffee, cooled (not instant)
6 ounces molasses, by weight (about 1/2 cup)
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 garlic cloves, minced
kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

Steps:

  • Combine the coffee, molasses, vinegar, mustard, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, the ginger, thyme and pork chops in a 1-gallon zip-top bag; seal and shake to combine. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat a grill to medium-high. Remove the pork from the bag. Pour the marinade into a saucepan; boil gently over medium-high heat, stirring, until reduced to 1/2 cup, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove the thyme stems.
  • Grill the pork chops for 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145. Let rest for 5 minutes; serve with the glaze.

I'm not a big fan of coffee, so I was hesitant to try this recipe. But I'm glad I did! The coffee flavor was subtle and didn't overpower the pork chops. I really enjoyed this recipe.

I found the molasses and coffee marinade to be a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would prefer a more savory marinade next time.
