THICK PORK CHOPS WITH SPICED APPLES AND RAISINS



Thick Pork Chops with Spiced Apples and Raisins image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 gallon water
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup sea salt
1 cup frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed
1 1/2 teaspoons whole black peppercorns
2 fresh thyme sprigs
4 double-cut bone-in loin pork chops, 1 pound each
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and sliced in 1/2-inch-thick wedges
Leaves from 2 fresh thyme sprigs
1/4 cup raisins
3/4 cup frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
Pinch dry mustard
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 lemon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a mixing bowl combine the water, brown sugar, sea salt, apple juice concentrate, peppercorns, and thyme. Give it a good stir to dissolve the sugar and salt. Transfer the mixture to an extra-large re-sealable plastic bag. Submerge the pork chops in the brine, seal up the bag, and put it in the refrigerator for 2 hours to tenderize the meat. Do not brine longer than that or the meat will break down too much and get mushy.
  • Remove the pork chops from the brine and pat them dry with paper towels. Sprinkle both sides of the meat with salt and pepper. Put a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add a 3-count drizzle of olive oil and get it hot. Lay 2 pork chops in the pan (most likely only 2 of these massive pork chops will fit comfortably) and brown 4 minutes per side. Remove the pork chops to a large baking pan; brown the remaining 2 chops and add them to the others in the pan. Put the baking pan in the oven and roast the chops for 30 minutes. The pork is done when the center is still rosy and the internal temperature reads 140 to 145 degrees F when tested with an instant-read thermometer.
  • While the chops cook, melt the butter in a clean skillet over medium-low heat. Add the apples and thyme and coat in the butter; cook and stir for 8 minutes to give them some color. Toss in the raisins and add the apple juice, stirring to scrape up the brown bits. Stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves, and dry mustard; season with salt and pepper. Squeeze in the juice from the lemon to wake up the flavor and simmer for 10 minutes or until the apples break down and soften. Spoon the spiced apples over the pork chops.

MUSTARD-CRUSTED PORK CHOPS



Mustard-Crusted Pork Chops image

A family favorite! Use fresh breadcrumbs only for this, and the amounts can be cut in half for 4 porkchops. The garlic powder or fresh garlic can be omited if desired. I sprinkle powdered meat tenderizer on my chops, cover and refrigerate about 4-5 hours before using for this recipe (or any pork chop recipe) you can do this up to 24 hours in advance even... your chops with be melt in your mouth tender!

Tips:

  • To ensure the pork chops are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature before removing them from the heat. The safe internal temperature for pork chops is 145°F (63°C), with a three-minute rest period before serving.
  • For the best flavor, marinate the pork chops in the mustard mixture for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will help tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
  • When cooking the pork chops, sear them over high heat to create a nice crust. Then, reduce the heat and cook them slowly until they are cooked through. This will help to prevent the chops from drying out.
  • To make the caramelized red onions, use a heavy-bottomed skillet and cook the onions over low heat until they are soft and golden brown. This can take some time, but it's worth it for the delicious flavor.
  • Serve the pork chops with the caramelized red onions and your favorite sides. Some suggestions include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

This recipe for thick-cut mustard-marinated pork chops with caramelized red onions is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that's perfect for any occasion. The pork chops are juicy and flavorful, and the caramelized red onions are a sweet and savory complement. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
