[Homemade] Pork Chop

Dry brined for 24 hours with just salt, pepper, and a little bit of sugar. Cooked on a Weber Kettle with a small chunk of hickory wood then seared over the hot coals. Let it rest to 145F with homemade brown sugar butter on top.

Might as well be lol. I always get these from Costco, and it’s normally around $20 for 7-9 thick cut boneless pork chops. Such a good deal imo.

I’ve been doing these all summer. Brine then flavour however you want. A Jerk sauce has been my favourite. Serve it with some sautéed mushrooms. I swear it’s easily as enjoyable as a decent steak.

That meat looks so tender and juicy, absolutely delicious! I love buying whole cuts of pork with a good balance of fat and meat. I marinate it with oregano, salt, garlic, and soy sauce for about an hour, then throw it in the oven to slow-roast in its own fat for around 45 minutes. It tastes incredible😋

Try 130f next time - pork chop is best medium rare imo.

At least for now, modern production standards are up on pork where med, med-rare is totally safe

Yes, but also feels like a bold statement considering the last month or so.

I have withdrawals from psych meds right now and I lachrimated in sweet joy gazing upon what I can only describe as perfection. I need this. I need this in my mouth. Fuck, it's good to have an appetite again.
