Directions
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 , used the brine on a pork tender loin I then put in a slow cooker with a little dry onion soup, a little water and cooked it on low all night It was delicious tender, moist and tasty Will be my pork chop/fresh pork go to from now on
