8 Hour Giardinier Brine Pork Chops With Mango Pepper Relish On the CGA

[captjoe06]

I decided to try brining pork chops to see if I could get similar results. Growing up Sicilian we always had Giardiniera on the table and I love it. So I figured brine is generally made up of salt, water and such,  so why not try a brine consisting of the juice from the Giardiniera jar.

Put the thick cut pork chops in a gallon zip lock bag and filled it with the Giardiniera brine and kept it refrigerated for eight hours.





Took out three of the pork chops, patted them dry with a paper towel and then coated with EVOO, salt, pepper, garlic and a little rosemary.






Grilled over medium/high heat covered on the Weber Go Anywhere til 145° internal. Took them off to rest for five minutes smeared on the Mango Pepper Jelly and cut in.










JUICY!



So juicy. So flavourful. Victory!
