Recipe: Apple and Brown Sugar Brine (for pork chops)

Toppings - Assorted
APPLE AND BROWN SUGAR BRINE

There is nothing like pan-seared pork chops with sauteed spiced apples on the side! Brining is a fabulous way to bring flavor and moisture to meats. If you have time, brine the pork chops before cooking them. Plan ahead and allow two hours to brine the chops.

1/2 cup golden brown sugar
1/2 cup sea salt
8 cups water
1/2 cup frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
2 fresh thyme sprigs

In a large heatproof bowl, dissolve sugar and salt in 4 cups of hot water.

Add 4 cups ice water, plus apple juice, peppercorns and thyme. Stir to combine.

Add the pork chops and completely submerge in the brine. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. (Do not brine longer or the meat will break down too much and get mushy.)

Remove the chops from the brine and pat dry with paper towels.
