Tarragon Mustard Sauce

This sauce can be used for either/both marinade and basting sauce. I marinated some thick cut, boneless pork chops in this sauce (for about 4 hours). I cooked the chops over the grill and used a reserve batch to brush on while cooking.



3 tbsp coarse ground mustard
3 tbsp Dijon mustard
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp tarragon vinegar
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp fresh tarragon, chopped




Combine all ingredients together and whisk until well blended. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to let flavors meld.

The marinade sounds like it will leave the meat nice and luscious.

Thanks Janet!

Nora, you are right about that! I contemplated using a brine on my chops because they can get dry on the grill, however they turned out really juicy and full of flavor.
