Notes:

HONEY GARLIC PORK CHOPS ON THE GRILL:

For basting, set aside 2 tbsp of the honey garlic sauce.

In the rest of the honey garlic sauce mixture, coat the pork chops.

On a greased grill, place the chops. Close the lid of the grill and cook the chops for about 5 minutes on each side over medium-high heat, basting the chops twice as it cooks.

TO MAKE AHEAD:

In a large Ziploc bag, put the pork chops and the honey garlic sauce. Seal the bag, then rub the sauce around. Put the bag in the fridge to marinate the chops for up to 8 hours.

When ready to cook, remove the chops from the fridge and set them on the counter for at least 10 minutes.

TO FREEZE:

In a large Ziploc bag, place the pork chops and the honey garlic sauce. Seal the bag tightly, then place it in the freezer.

Take the bag from the freezer the night before when ready to make the Honey Garlic Baked Pork Chops and thaw in the fridge.
