Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: For this recipe, a boneless pork loin roast or pork tenderloin works well. These cuts are lean and tender, and they cook quickly.
  • Marinate the pork: Marinating the pork helps to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor. The marinade in this recipe is made with lemon juice, thyme, olive oil, garlic, and salt and pepper. You can also add other herbs and spices to the marinade, such as rosemary, oregano, or paprika.
  • Grill the pork over medium-high heat: This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the pork while cooking it through on the inside. Be sure to turn the pork every few minutes so that it cooks evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork is cooked to your desired doneness: The internal temperature of the pork should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, or 165 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
  • Allow the pork to rest before slicing: This will help to keep the juices in the pork and prevent it from drying out.

Conclusion:

Grilled pork with lemon-thyme barley is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. The pork is tender and flavorful, and the barley is a hearty and filling side dish. This recipe is sure to please everyone at your table.
