Cut up 3 of the peaches (or use nectarines). In a blender or food processor, combine the cut-up fruit, lemon juice, honey, and black pepper. Cover and blend until smooth. Transfer mixture to a small saucepan, and simmer, uncovered, about 15 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally.

Chop remaining fruit stir into sauce with thyme (can also use 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon dried and crushed). Brush sauce onto meat during the last 15 minutes of grilling.

Makes 13/4 cups of sauce, enough for 2-3 lbs of meat.

Sauce may be made up to 24 hours in advance. To serve, reheat over low heat, stirring occasionally.

with green beans or other garden picks.
