I have honey and porkchops. Is it safe to marinate the porkchops in a honey based marinade and then fry them in a blend of cooking oils?

Are you saying you want to mix honey and oil, and use it as a frying medium?– SAJ14SAJDec 20, 2013 at 3:33

2It will almost certainly burn and scortch and be completely unpalatable. And very difficult to clean. Its probably safe within some particular definition of the word. A fire extinguisher may be advisable.– SAJ14SAJDec 20, 2013 at 3:36

2I should probably revise my question. I marinated the porkchops in a blend of honey, soy, and other oils. I let that sit for about an hour. In volume, the sauce was probably about 25% honey. Then I fried the porkchops - they were cut thin - in that sauce. I stirred constantly and it didn't burn too badly at all. The taste was okay, though I should add more flavours (mustard, balsamic, etc.).– NewbDec 20, 2013 at 3:40

1You should edit your question to make it clear exactly what you want to ask if you still want answers.– Cascabel ♦Dec 21, 2013 at 0:42

I've heard of adding sugar to stir-fries, to make a caramel flavoured sauce/glaze in Vietnamese cooking, as in this recipe. Although I've usually seen sugar used, I see no reason why a similar effect could not be obtained by using honey.
