Molasses Brined Pork Chops - Brined Grilled Pork Chops Recipe

[cdimmm]

why kosher salt?

[MrSkinnyBill]

I like molasses...

I never tried any other part of the mole though :l

[jbaby007]

@MrSkinnyBill I get it! Funny lol

[bloodalex532]

u should sell these o.o

[A1iaaOP92]

Kosher Salt + Pork = Irony!

[jameelia1086]

@A1iaaOP92 lmaooo so very true

[mikenike504]

Chef John = the reason why I could never be vegetarian!

[fosterslover]

Once you brine, you never go back. The meat's so moist it literally falls off the bone.

[hottiequeenb]

Making this for dinner they're in the brine right now :)

[ImAdude4894]

im so high

[untitleme61]

Chef John, can you cook the chops in the oven instead of the grill?

[RomLink1]

love your humor :))

[growingneeds]

meat lover's paradise.

[zacre]

chef...make a gastrique or aspic and explain how people can use it!

[AngellGaby]

Vantastic !

[megustaverlas]

I'm coming!

[MrHorribleJustice]

EpicMealTime meets chef john

[cowmancheese]

Cool!

[tready2008]

its so funny how many people took mu comment serousley

[fufo4ka1]

fantastic !!!

[alishadoggie21]

So why don't you brine rabbit? :O I mean it dries out super easily.

[pranawarman]

can i use beef? or lamb? because i can't eat pork

[HackerGuitarist]

@pranawarman than why did you watch a pork recipe video ?

[pranawarman]

@HackerGuitarist i watched 'cause of the ingredients, maybe i can use it on other meat

[Skandar0007]

How weird when you eat an animal that can eat poop and mud.. Ewwww

[TangoSpiceCompany]

Those look fantastic!

[leyna]

make galbi!

[Retify92]

vantastic

[JOHNINCOLUMBUS]

Chef John, I made the Carolina BBQ, but I cheated, I used some leftover fruit cocktail but used all the rest of the ingredients you sited. Tomorrow I'm going to cook the meat, I cheated again...my bad, I am using boneless skinless chicken breasts instead of pork...the BBQ sauce is sssssspicy, and yummy!

Thanks Chef John, you are a great mentor to me.

[TrentMcneily]

The USDA lowered is recommended temp on pork, it's ok lower than 150 now.

[TrentMcneily]

@TrentMcneily sure it's only 5 degrees but that matters.

[TheBlackxism]

hey Chef John it has been said that red meat should be cooked at least for an hour.... what is your stand on this?

[FlaGuy66]

Thanks Chef John, whenever I get in a rut with cooking I can always pull up your videos and get inspired with new ideas!

[ThorFan4Life]

Aw to bad I'm jewish

[kiminokami]

@ThorFan4Life Do it with chicken or turkey. I'm serious.

[JackiePaquito]

I love chef john's videos!! I get hungry

[TheRabidPosum]

Want a great pork chop idea try this my own invention. Mix up BBQ sauce, orange juice, italian salid dressing, equal ammounts, and thin it out with an equal amount of water. Stab the shit out of the pork chops on both sides with a fork. If you have a crock pot great, if not like me cook them in a regular pot covered at a slow simmer for hours, the longer the better. They literally fall apart with just a fork. Serve them and the remaining sauce over a bed of rice and beans.

[takadi]

@TheRabidPosum

damn that sounds fucking good. I bet it would be better and cheaper with pork shoulder

[dtsuei]

@TheRabidPosum You mean salid? Or salad?

[nine110]

Chef, can I respectfully request that you give us some techniques about the virtues of brining meats, esp. chicken. What is the ratio of salt and sugar? Do we need to rinse off the brine before cooking? Etc. etc.

[whosaiducaneatmario]

hehe secret annotation :P

[jayjaygibbs]

those are slightly over-cooked

[TheRabidPosum]

@billw23454 you can eat it. I wouldn't touch pink pork if you paid me. Not bashing the recipe, looks great but pork needs to be well done. You can still get tricinosis or a tapeworm. Red meat, beef, lamb, ect. I like rare, I'm not one of those where everything has to be well done. I'm sure pink pork tasts great but I don't trust it.

[wrathofcell]

I dont even eat this stuff and i stll watch every video by this amazing man.

[silverblue008]

You are and always will be my favorite chef on YouTube! You need a TV show, please

[gerry3x]

Chef John please do some Cajun dishes.

[foodwishes]

@gerry3x doing one this week!

[yoshomiru]

lol at the end when he moved his food around i followed it like a dog

[DeadwinSuh]

I'm completely baffled. How is anyone disliking this, Chef John? Is it other cooking shows?

[hawaiidispenser]

@DeadwinSuh Vegans maybe? Jules from Pulp Fiction?

[chidori8291]

could you do a video on a beef wellington?

[NurseRekka]

I bet this would be good with beef. Maybe lamb, but I know lamb can be gamey if not made right. :/ Holy cow (er pig), I haven't had chops in a while... O_o

[eibose12]

you looked so excited dropping the porky choppies all over the grill.

[Pingstery]

The saliva that generated while watching this video....mad. 

[MyBloodBurns]

Chef John needs to do some kind of contest. Prize: Dinner made by Chef John himself.

[thepweencess]

@MyBloodBurns fedexed to the country of your choice over 10 exasperating days

[Heemoproductions]

I love how the Top Comment is: "no"

[desertrose88]

i love watching your videos. they bring me up when i am really down. :)

[TheVittleVlog]

Gotta be good!!!

[Orion6699]

Its SKILLZ chef... with a z

[inept0]

@elisawashere Poultry brines nicely as well. If you aren't brining your turkeys you're missing out.

[jtdbs]

My food wish something hot!Realy hot!You can make Chilli! :D

[LaurenMacP1994]

Your wife is such a lucky woman. My boyfriend makes me cook for him all the time, and all i can make is frozen crap! :'(

[jtdbs]

@LaurenMacP1994 :D I can cook!Make him go in to the kitchen!

[DataCollaborate]

I hope CHEF JOHN could make a cake with MAPLE SYRUP :D

[ampz37]

im getting fat

[devastaticon]

"A nuff water to make 2 quarts..."

=)

[jroks12345]

What inspires your recipes? Do you surf the net for a recipe and then one up it, Chef John style?

[aboubrad]

can i use beef instead of pork? will it make any difference?

[aboubrad]

can i use beef instead of pork? will it make any difference?

[TrickyMimic]

I'll be ready to die happy if I ever get the chance to taste any of your recipes.

[erique82]

i can't consume pork, is it alright to substitute it with any other meat such as beef or lamb?

[angelajang1]

chef john this guy called Michael Symon says using fresh herb makes everything taste so much better.. Is this true? when it comes to food i trust u more than anyone else so i want to hear what u think thanks i love u and ur videos soooo much :D

[gavers23]

Will this work with other types of meat? I keep Kosher so pork wont work for me...

[NeoFalcon69]

@gavers23

I tried a similar dish with Lamb instead of pork.

[lhrmeonom]

Is it bad to put plastic in the microwave or hot food in a plastic container? I heard it's bad for you.

[Vinc3ntPh4m]

When you cut into that pork I exploded

[jvcrules]

notch needs to add this...

[zangertime]

the pork looks raw?



[moofushu]

Mr Chef Have you ever tried cow's heart? If you haven't, you are missing out. Peruvian cuisine offers "anticuchos" that is basically marinated heart and cooked over a grill on skewers. You can find recipes online. The recipe is popular and I think you will enjoy it.

[chuchinhuoc310]

the bin you used for the brine looked exactly like the bin alton brown uses!!! =O!

[mbe102]

Dude, this is awesome. You're sense of humor, plus your voice, and simplicity, and your guidance is top notch. That and you're a wicked chef :D.

[Raiokai]

I am I the only one who watch these recipes and never do them. If not, thumbs up.

[mbe102]

@Raiokai I actually... do try them haha.

[doycohamco]

I'M HUNGRY. :(

[c41v1nch4ng]

your replies are hilarious chef john, and wow, that pork chop looks FABULOUS

[AwakeAliveAlert]

fuck...

[chairofbowlies10]

I am a firm believer in brining now thanks to you Chef John! I make your honey brined fried boneless chicken breasts all the time and get rave reviews! Can't wait to try this one :)

[Lubie225]

i thought youre meant to just turn it over once only? is this the same with porkchops?

[AryliRLE]

For a second, I thought the cloves were screws! XD

[lilacfunk]

I first learning about brining from Alton Brown and his fantastic turkey recipe. My friends and I made and ate turkey for the first time ever and it turned out absolutely perfect!

[grapowski]

Chef John, I love your recipes and try some here and there.

I have a question. Since I'm from Brazil, I've never heard about kosher salt until I began watching your videos. Could you kindly explain the difference between kosher and refined salt? Would it make any difference in the brine use refined salt? Thank you very much!

[choidj]

I paused this at 1:37 to study for an Automotive Technician exam and when I came back to this, I freaked out since I thought the pork chops were in antifreeze. I need some more sleep haha.

[aLilBitOEverything]

Chef John is the Chuck Norris of Cooking.

[sylvia5932]

Yummy sooo want u as my personal chef I swear if I win the lotto I'm going to hire u well that is if u want too hehe but omg my mouth just watered :)

[LigerZero1985]

hmm. i wonder what if i put the pork chops into pepsi

[chriskimforlife]

TO CHEF JOHN, THE GREATEST MAN WHO EVER LIVED!

[UndercoverFruitcake]

You're a cook not a chef, taking a few cooking classes doesn't make you one.

[heavenlyjumper]

@UndercoverFruitcake You failed the internet. Check out his education and credentials. Just search his name on wikipedia. 

[spitfiremanlizerd]

comments are funnier than any other fake cooking channel bullshit. and the video itself is actually helpful.

[TigersLullaby]

your voice is sooooo hypnotic :D

[VertigaDesignMEDIA]

Enjoy!

[JennyxCookies119]

Every single video of Foodwishes there's always someone post this.

I don't like _______ , can I substitute mushrooms instead? Lmao

[CrazyGrin]

If only I wasn't a vegetarian..lol

But seriously, I didn't look at the title and saw only the picture and thought it was a bunch of puppies XD

[rkelly70]

WOW...looks delicious. Sure wish we had taste-a-vision...lol. You always get me when you say Enjoy! It sounds like you are grinning from ear to ear when you say that. ;-) I really ENJOY that.

[shannonleta]

Yummmmm

[TheMelanar]

@foodwishes 1:07 ...FoodWishes app :O?!

[H0tkebab]

This video gets a thumbs up from a Vegetarian.

[SupportTheBlind]

Hello Sir,

I don't a grill but would like to get that grill flavor in the meat. Is their any alternative way to do it in a oven?

Thanks.

[ARabidPigeon]

This made me soo hungry I cried.

[westislandkev]

I was wondering, does brine change the meat in any significant way like citrus does to raw food (e.g. ceviche)???

[Vlaxerman343]

0:52 to 1:12 sweet caeser chef John you always find a way to make it work for everybody, except for diehard vegetarians watching this video

[CarolineTurpentine]

have you ever had pork chops with cream of mushroom soup? any way to improve upon that?

[bigboy45454545]

@CarolineTurpentine Add your own fresh mushrooms cracked black pepper and onions is a great way to improve that method.

[Sushi4Majdi]

Could I replace the pork with Lamb instead? For religious reasons I can't eat pork, but I'd like to try this method someday!

[bigboy45454545]

People make sure pork is cooked to at least 170 F right through to avoid Trichinosis. Looks good John, thank you.

[CanadaMMA]

Comaring Foodwishes to Epic Meal Time is like comparing apples and golf balls. They have nothing in common besides food. I watch them for different reasons and I love them both.

[blitzbeat06]

lol epicmealtime doesnt even compare wth. like comparing an f1 with a gocart

[nakulsharma1]

Chef Jhon when my pork chops are overcooked. I will just watch this video and know everything is okay. =)

[PlatypusGuitar]

Chef John's balls are bigger than the guys from epicmealtime's combined

[foodwishes]

@PlatypusGuitar Much bigger, thanks!

[lilacfunk]

@foodwishes Better get your prostate checked then. ;)

[Tehlifeof3]

@foodwishes the funny part with epic mealtime, is that they're actually decent cooks :DD but you're way better! its what got me inspired to cook :)

[devil4etoo]

@foodwishes why did you have to say that now i am picturing it ....

[TheLaurenGrace]

@foodwishes

Yet they still have close to 100,000 more subscribers than you.

[LanceLawliet92]

@TheLaurenGrace What do ball size have to do with subscribers?

[moepskie]

@TheLaurenGrace A wild troll appears!

[iDoopy]

@PlatypusGuitar Lmao cant believe he replied to your comment

[PlatypusGuitar]

@iDoopy he featured my salmon croquette video on his blog a few weeks ago and he follows me on twitter. Im surprised he doesnt reply more often by now actually. This is probably the 5th or 6th time :)

[iDoopy]

@PlatypusGuitar Lucky!

[snuckles108]

@PlatypusGuitar How can you consider this guy to EpicMealTime? The only different is the bacon.

[Vlaxerman343]

@PlatypusGuitar actually they're so big they could start an internet meme

[JohnWoo]

@PlatypusGuitar Fuck epicmealtime, they're so repetitive. Bacon, bacon, bacon, bacon. Oh shut the fuck up. Chef John FTW.

[DataCollaborate]

@PlatypusGuitar Well if he has, he should go to a doctor :/

[quextico]

OMG Chef John, those chops look absolutely amazing!

[Gilgamesh417]

Would you recommend Berkshire pork chops for this?

[kd1s]

Super juicy and super tasty! Most modern pork is pretty much flavorless. They need some serious treatment to be palatable.

[WeightingMyTurn]

Brining is like food foreplay!

[Living2TheMax2]

whats with the sound?

[YesdogLive]

Those are not chops, they're little pork roasts! Srsly, awesome chops.

[AznFoxBoi]

Minecraft Pork :D

[hottfoshiizzlee]

with chef john's videos, men would never need viagra ever again.

[TigerTurban]

hmmm..! Chef John has his own trolls now....nihilists whose only joy in life is spreading discord...I have theories about strategic trolls...

[ilikescheerios]

mrs chef john is the luckiest woman in the world

[TigerTurban]

Alton Brown got me into brining chip chops! next big project is a turkey for Canadian Thanksgivin'!

[laumeux]

This is the only cooking channel I bother to watch in HD full-screen.

[muncher541]

Can you pronounce fantastic correctly?

[Phr33Pur3]

EpicMealTime = Throws a bunch of shit together.

Foodwishes = Gracefully; throws a bunch of shit together.

Just kidding your great Chef John :D

[lilpiggy89]

Great video!

[EpIcStuntS2]

Do you know a good sauce for fish ?

[ameralhemaidi]

I'm Jewish We don't eat pork bitch........ thanks anyway I used ur habaneros sauce to eat my girl friend ass and pussy, and it was amazing.

I told her as always enjoy

[dalton9931]

@ameralhemaidi haha, youre a jew

[valdezmiguel2]

I don't like pork, can I substitute mushrooms instead?

[Redtrooper]

@valdezmiguel2 I wouldn't brine mushrooms. I would however grill them with that delicious bbq sauce.

[valdezmiguel2]

@Redtrooper I always brine my mushrooms. you should try it.

[foodwishes]

@valdezmiguel2 no

[tready2008]

@foodwishes Well im going to use mushrooms anyway



[aznmmv00]

@tready2008 Then get lost.

[tready2008]

@aznmmv00 Well excuse me there is no need for that, I can try with mushrooms if i want to asshole

[aznmmv00]

@tready2008 Shouldn't had click on this video then.

[1337mas1337]

@foodwishes What about beef

[kooshkack]

@valdezmiguel2 what about beef or lamb?

[SturL]

@valdezmiguel2 How can you not like pork? It's as neutral as chicken... Plus, low in fat and high in proteins (as most clean cut meat is of course).

[valdezmiguel2]

@SturL thanks pork commission. It is also piped full of deadly proto-xanthans, and is a known psisochisoriasis antagonizer. go learn biology before you bring you shit in here.

[traixen]

@valdezmiguel2 What the heck type of pork are you getting? That information is false.

[SturL]

@valdezmiguel2 Wow, are the non-pork-eaters getting scientific rather than dogmatic about this now..? Tsktsk, religion is going downwards...

[meph1975]

@valdezmiguel2 I don't know where you're getting your pork from, but mine only has pig in it. Also, go learn some manners before you bring your shit in here.

[JoyeuseXI]

@valdezmiguel2 Go back to sketching Anthony Weiner.

[leelovealiza]

chef john always gets perfect meat ...when i go to the butcher he gives me decent meat :(
