How to

Seeing the juicy pork chops in my friend Jennifer Yu's blog post (Use Real Butter) inspired this recipe, which features one of my favorite getting-meat-ready-for-the-grill techniques of all time. If you can call sprinkling salt on pork chops a technique. As long as you don't horribly overcook your meat, this 'dry-brine' technique will produce the juiciest and most flavorful pork chops you've ever had.

BRINE-CURED PORK CHOPS



Brine-Cured Pork Chops image

Provided by Julia Reed

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup kosher salt
2/3 cup sugar
20 juniper berries
20 allspice berries
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
4 bay leaves
3 sprigs fresh thyme
3 sprigs fresh marjor
6 1 1/2-inch-thick center-cut rib or loin pork chops, bone in
Olive oil
Freshly ground black pepper
12 to 15 sprigs fresh rosemary (optional)
Salt to taste

Steps:

  • To make the brine, dissolve the salt and sugar in 1 gallon of warm water in a large bowl. In a mortar, slightly crush juniper and allspice berries and the peppercorns along with the bay leaves and herbs; add to the brine. When the brine is cool, add pork chops and completely submerge, putting weights on top of a plate if necessary. Refrigerate for at least 2 days and up to 3 days.
  • To prepare the chops, remove from the brine about 2 hours before cooking and dry with paper towels. Rub them with a bit of olive oil and pepper. (You may also perfume the meat at this point with a few sprigs of fresh rosemary, placed on top of and beneath the chops). Allow the chops to come to room temperature.
  • Grill the chops (partly covered if possible to control flaming) over medium-hot coals about 5 to 7 minutes a side, or fry 3 at a time in 2 preheated heavy-bottomed skillets over medium-high heat. Place them on a warm platter and cover loosely with foil. Allow them to rest about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt if needed.

BRINE-CURED PORK CHOPS



Brine-Cured Pork Chops image

Provided by Molly O'Neill

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup dark brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup kosher salt
10 black peppercorns
5 juniper berries
5 bay leaves
1/8 cup fennel seeds
1 cup mixed fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, sage, oregano)
Peel of 1 orange
1 quart boiling water
3 quarts cold water
12 center-cut pork chops
2 tablespoons virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Combine all the ingredients except the water, pork chops and olive oil in a large glass, ceramic or plastic container. Add the boiling water and stir to completely dissolve the sugar and salt. Stir in the cold water to cool the brine.
  • Lay the chops out in 1 layer in a large nonreactive pan and completely cover them with the brine. If a chop floats to the surface, weigh it down with a plate. Cover and refrigerate for 12 to 24 hours, depending on how much flavor you want the meat to acquire. (If the chops must be stacked, change their positions in the brine often.)
  • Heat a grill or broiler. Drain the pork chops, discarding the brine, and pat dry with paper towels. Brush the chops with the oil and grill or broil for 5 to 6 minutes per side. Put the chops on a rack in a pan to catch the drippings and loosely cover with foil. Set aside in a warm place for 6 to 8 minutes and serve.
