Last night was beer brined poke chops on the weber kettle, if you've never brined some pork you should try it.
brine was 2 cups water
1 bottle dark beer ( Troegentator ) stouts, porters, newcastle all work well for this brine
1/4 cup kosher salt and brown sugar, sugar was heaped
1/8 cup dark molasses
1 1/2 cups ice
stir till salt is dissolved
brine pork chops for 30 mins for thin cut, longer for thicker chops, mine were about 1, 1-1/4" brined for 1.5 hours. I put a plate on them to keep them submerged in the brine in a large glass bowl.
quickly rinsed, patted dry and lightly seasoned w Sauers pork rub. left on the platter for 30 mins. before grilling to not hit the grill cold.
grilled over hot coals about 10 mins.
turned and a splash of bbq sauce brushed on the hot side, covered
grilled 10-15 mins. more and they're done.
rest a few minutes and dig into some very tender,juicy and deeeeelicious chops.
if you use thin cut chops they only need about 5 mins a side on the coals.
