Pork chops

Pork chops are best if brined.  However, since pork chops are already salty, I usually only brine them for 4 hours rather than overnight.  I also do not add any rub to my pork chops.  See my earlier posts for brine recipes.  Reduce the brine time appropriately if you are using a more concentrated boiled brine rather than a simple cold mixed brine.
