Instructions

Step 1: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine 1/3 cup bourbon whiskey, 1/4 cup Nebraska honey, 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1 tbsp soy sauce, and 3 minced garlic cloves. Simmer gently for 8-10 minutes until the glaze thickens and coats the back of a spoon, then remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Step 2: Season 4 bone-in pork chops with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper on both sides. Brush each chop lightly with 2 tbsp olive oil.
Step 3: Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Place pork chops on the grill and cook for 4 minutes per side, brushing generously with the bourbon-honey glaze during the last 2 minutes of grilling.
Step 4: Remove chops from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute. Serve with extra glaze drizzled on top.
