Cooking Instructions
- 1
Two - 1 pound 2" thick Top Loin chops pictured. Fat trimmed.
- 2
Create your brine. Add everything in the ● Brine Section [except ice] in a pot and bring to a boil. Stir until sugar, salt and seasonings are fully dissolved.
- 3
Place brine in a plastic bowl. Allow brine to cool. Add ice to cool completely..
- 4
Add chops in brine with additional ice if needed and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours. Ideally you'll want your brine at 36°.
- 5
Pull your chops rinse and pat dry. Season as desired. Allow chops to come to room temperature.
- 6
Coat chops with oil and generously season all sides. Especially with fresh ground black pepper.
- 7
Preheat oven to 350°.
- 8
Using a cast iron skillet, heat it to a high searing heat.
- 9
Sear your chops on all sides. About 2 1/2 minutes on each side. Try not to flip too early. You want a solid char on your meat.
- 10
Place hot skillet and chops in your 350° oven until chops have reached an internal temperature of 140°. Usually 8 to 10 minutes.
- 11
Do not cut in to meat to check for doneness. You'll only release all its natural juices. Simply use a digital thermometer. Be careful to not overcook. Otherwise you'll have dry chops.
- 12
Once at 140° - pull from oven and allow pork to rest out of skillet for 5 minutes. Serve on personalized cast iron skillets over mashed or, to the side of baked potatoes. Fresh baked French bread and a chilly acidic salad to cut the richness of the pork are also great ideas. I have several chilly, crispy, citrus acid based salad recipes under my profile if you're interested.

Tomato Basil Insalata over Sliced Broiled Pork Loin and Mashed Potatoes. Tomato Basil Insalata over Sliced Broiled Pork Loin and Mashed Potatoes.
I ate more tomato insalata as a kid than I ate regular salad, and we ate a lot of regular salad! So, this is a take on that salad, which is awesome during the summer, over quickly cooked but still tender pork, and some nice rich mashed potatoes. Taking a bite of the pork, mashed potatoes, and insalata together will just make your night.

I love using my rice cooker for making a one bowl mashed potatoes. All the flavors blend together beautifully leaving me able to finish the rest of the meal. If you want to serve this with children in the house, just omit the wine. You'll still enjoy this wonderful mash.

Mama's Stuffed Cabbage Over Mashed Potatoes Mama's Stuffed Cabbage Over Mashed Potatoes
My mom being 100% Polish made some amazing dishes passed down to her. Some were considered peasant dishes but they are just fresh ingredients that were used when in season and plentiful. Sometimes simple is best. Here is her rendition. This is made for 4 people. For more, simply double or triple recipe. Now your wondering where is the rice. In mom's recipe there wasn't any since it was always served over mashed potatoes. Old customs had ingredients fresh from the garden. Grandma, mom did make their own strained tomato sauce. Sorry mom but I cheated here😉 -
