Cómo preparar Alton Brown's 2 Hour Mustard Brine For Pork Chops Or Roast
- In a large plastic container with a lid, combine 3/4 cup kosher salt (or 1 cup for a saltier brine), 1/2 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons black peppercorns, and 2 tablespoons mustard powder.
- Add 2 cups of hot white vinegar and stir vigorously until the salt and sugar are completely dissolved.
- Let the mixture stand at room temperature for 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Add 2 cups of ice cubes to the brine and stir gently until most of the ice has melted. This will cool the brine for the pork.
- Carefully submerge 4-6 large, thick-cut pork chops in the brine, ensuring they are completely covered. If necessary, use a smaller container to ensure the brine covers the pork chops.
- Cover the container tightly with its lid and refrigerate for exactly 2 hours.
- Remove pork chops from the brine and rinse them thoroughly under cold running water.
- Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and cook as desired (grill, pan-fry, bake). Enjoy incredibly juicy and flavorful pork chops!
