Salt Cured Pork Chops

• 4 pork chops, approximately 3/4 inches thick
• 1 cup kosher salt (do not use iodized)
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons cooking oil

1. Combine the salt, sugar, and pepper. Mix well.
2. Put the chops on a wire rack in a baking pan or any container that is large enough to accommodate the rack.
3. Generously cover the chops with the cure using about 2-3 tablespoons per chop making sure they are totally covered with the cure.
4. Place the container of chops in the fridge for 6 hours uncovered.
5. Remove from fridge and thoroughly rinse the chops and pat dry.
6. Place the chops back into the container on top of the rack and return to the fridge for at least 1 hour.
7. Heat cast iron skillet medium to medium high with the cooking oil and cook the chops flipping once until cooked through.
8. Grilling is excellent as well!
