    MR H,[p]The link below describes how I cook steaks, but I use the exact same method for thick boneless pork chops, minus the mustard.[p]TRex

    MR H,
    While I like TREX's method, I usually brine these chops. Just had some for dinner last night, and they were juicy, soft and tender. Since we always brine pork loins, it makes sense to do these "pieces of loin". These are dense, lean pieces of meat that need some "juice" inside. About 1/3 cup salt; 1/3 cup sugar; other spices according to taste per 2 quarts of water. Brine for 6-8 hours. Apply whatever rub you like, sear them very hot, cook to 145 internal and then rest for 15 minutes. Enjoy!
