    Just curious if the people who found this too salty are using "Kosher" salt. Kosher salt is not as salty as table salt. If you use table salt, it will definitely be too salty.

    This dish wasn't flavorful and way too salty. I'm not sure why the recipe called for 1/2 cup of salt. If someone knows, do tell. I'm sure Alton Brown explained it on the episode but I missed it.

    I made this reciper for Valentines Day and it was ok. Doing the pork chops in the slow cooker was great. They were juicy and tender and fell right off the bone but I was uninpressed with the flavor. Next time I may play with a different spice or sauce.

    The ice in the brine is to cool it back off after heating it all to dissolve. You dont want to add the meat right away or it will start to cook and not brine. The 1lb of ice = 1pint of water so it also helps dilute the solution a little else it would be too strong.

    It was a little salty.. I would cut the salt down next time....we used beef instead like he suggested on the program.....tasted great except a little too salty..we don't use much salt around here so we are more senistive to the salt.... I will make it again using 1/3 cup kosher salt..instead...the peppery taste was great...

    It was bland and the pork lost its flavor and was tasteless. Certainly wasn't necessary to brine as the meat was fallling apart and couldn't be dry in all that sauce.

    I went ahead and rated it because knowing Alton's reputation for creating really good eats, I just guessed it would be OK. Anyway, I want to try this recipe but I'd like to know if anyone can tell me what the ice is for. I have brined stuff many times and have never used ice in the brine. Anxiously waiting for a reply before I go out shopping for ingredients. Thanks! Betty

    I made these pork chops by following the recipe exactly. I was concerned about saltiness based on others reviews, but the season was right - not too salty and not too peppery. Highly recommended.

    I tried this recipe tonight and I have a very very picky eater. He won't eat anything that is not easily identifiable AND he quizzes me on what is in everything I make that isn't fried meat.
    I made this and he raved about it! It's on the keeper list. It was a bit salty but I think just not salting the chops prior to cooking or reducing the added salt will help. I may also try adding apple juice instead of apples as suggested in another comment.

    My husband is a fan of Alton so I wanted to try this. I could not find any dried apples, looked in 3 different stores. so I just left them out. I am a fan of brining, especially pork chops, and have never have a "too salty" experience.
    When I pulled the chops out, they were so tender they fell apart! I used the liquid to make a really tasty gravy.
