Best Recipe for How to "Dry-Brine" Pork Chops

Ingredients

  • 4 large center-cut bone-in pork chops
  • 2 tablespoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • Vegetable oil for grilling

Instructions

  1. Mix kosher salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl to make the dry brine. Generously apply mixture to both sides of pork chops. Transfer chops to a rack on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate uncovered 18 to 24 hours.
  2. Preheat grill to medium or medium-high heat. Brush pork chops on each side with a few drops of vegetable oil.
  3. Grill chops until internal temperature reaches 135 degrees F (60 degrees C), turning to evenly brown on each side. Transfer to platter and allow to rest 5 minutes.
