Ingredients

Brine:

  • 1/2 cup kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon smoked salt
  • 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 cup honey
  • 4 tea bags black tea
  • 4 (6-ounce) bone-in pork chops

Glaze:

  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • 1 orange, zested and juiced
  • 1 tablespoon mirin
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • Salt and pepper

Directions

For the brine: Combine 1/2 gallon cold water, kosher salt, smoked salt, peppercorns, bay leaf, honey and tea bags in a large zip-top bag. Place the pork chops into the bag and the bag into the refrigerator. Let marinate for 2 hours. Remove the chops from the brine and pat dry with a paper towel. Discard the brine and allow the pork chops to come to room temperature, about 20 minutes.

Prepare a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Place the pork chops on the grill and cook for 6 to 8 minutes per side. Remove to a plate, cover with foil and keep in a warm place while making the glaze.

For the glaze: Combine the sesame oil, soy sauce, white wine, orange zest and juice, mirin, ginger, honey and salt and pepper in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a low boil and reduce the heat to low. Simmer about 10 minutes.

Drizzle about 3 tablespoons of the glaze on each pork chop and serve immediately.

    These pork chops were very tasty and tender. Everyone loved them. I've served them for company and they are always a hit. Follow the cooking instructions for grilling exactly so you don't overcook the pork. I also used liquid smoke instead of smoked salt, as I could not find it. Enjoy!

    The pork chop was great, going to use that brine again in the future. The glaze, maybe I did it wrong, but was over powering the flavor of the pork.

    Loved this! I'm not a big pork chop fan, but my husband loves them. Although I couldn't find the special salt, These were incredibly tender and tastey. We loved them. When I find the salt, I'll try them again. They can only get better.
