Steps:
- Put all the brining ingredients in a large saucepan with 1 litre of water and bring to the boil. Remove from the heat and leave to cool completely. Once cooled, put the chops in the brine, cover with cling film and leave in the fridge for 2 hrs. Remove the chops from the brine, rinse under the cold tap and pat dry with kitchen paper.
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat a large griddle pan over a high heat and fry the pork chops for 3-4 mins each side or until starting to char - you may need to do this in 2 batches. Transfer to a baking tray lined with foil and roast for 10-12 mins until cooked through.

ALTON BROWN'S 2-HOUR MUSTARD BRINE FOR PORK CHOPS OR ROAST
This is a recipe from Alton Brown on the food network, the regular recipe stated 1 cup salt but I cut it down to 3/4 cup you could even reduce the salt down to 1/2 cup but go ahead and use the 1 cup if you wish, remember kosher salt ONLY or you will not be able to eat the chops, and only brine the pork for 2 hours, NO MORE than that! You can use less than 5 large thick-cut pork chops or you might be able to fit more pork chops than five, just make certain that the meat is completely covered with the brine though.

- In this recipe I make a flavored brine for pork chops or pork tenderloin, which is based on my basic brine recipe. Pork can become overcooked pretty quickly and the brining process gives you a bit more insurance by getting some additional moisture in the meat. My flavored brine for pork chops, uses a few of pork’s “natural” pairings to also boost up the flavor. Pork Chop Brine Ingredients for pork brine
- 2 quarts of water 1 cup of Kosher salt 1 cup of brown sugar 1 roughly chopped onion 1 roughly chopped carrot ~20 peppercorns 2 cloves garlic Tablespoon of herb de provence 2 cups of apple juice

The one thing you’ll want to think about and watch and how much you sauté the vegetables. The more you cook them, the deeper the flavor they can bring, but remember, the meat is going to be brining for 8 hours so you don’t necessarily need deep, dark caramelization on the vegetables. Saute the Vegetables
- I like to use a sauce pan large enough to hold all of the liquid I am using for the brine, and go ahead and get the pot on the heat and add some olive oil Add the onion, garlic and carrot and sauté until the onions become translucent

- Pour the water, salt, sugar and one sprig of rosemary into a small pot and heat over high heat on the stove. Save the other sprig of rosemary until later.
- Turn off the heat and remove the pot from the burner as soon as bubbles appear, we just need the water nice and hot, not boiling.
- Allow the brining solution to cool to room temperature in the pot. This is important, we don’t want to pour hot liquid over the pork chops or it will cook the meat!

- Combine all of the brine ingredients in a medium pot. Bring to a simmer and whisk to make sure that the salt is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and allow the brine to cool completely.
- Add pork chops to the brine and refrigerate for 1-4 hours (or a quick brine for at least 30 minutes). If you're using thinner or boneless pork chops, you can brine for just 15-30 minutes.
- Remove pork from refrigerator and let come to room temperature on the counter for about 20-30 minutes. Heat olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until it’s very hot -- about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, remove pork from brine. Rinse under cold water; pat very dry with paper towels. Brush or rub each side of the pork chops with additional olive oil. The chops will be salty from the brine, so you shouldn’t need to add any more salt and pepper at this time.
