Moist Baked Pork Chops

I had seen a recipe similar to this year's ago, but couldn't find it, so I was very happy to see this in Allrecipes. I love how pork chops come out using this method. I love the flavor of the rub. I have made it now 3 times, and experimented with other spices the second and third time.

I had a pack of thin sliced, boneless pork chops I had to use so I looked for some recipe that was better then ending up with pan fried pieces of shoe leather and this did the trick. The chops remained moist and tender and the resulting pan sauce was amazing. I will be making this again but with the proper bone in thicker chops.

Pork Chops came out so moist and the seasoning was great. My family enjoyed them and wanted me to make more. I also made Chef John's Nectarine Salsa. The pairing of these two was so amazing.

This recipe turned out excellent, although I ended up brining it for 24 hours instead of 2. I was concerned it might be too salty, but the chops were flavourful, moist and tender. The cooking time was perfect as well. The brown sugar caramelized the chops making the plate presentation appealing. I added a bit of mango salsa to the top of the chops which balanced the sweetness of the rub. Great recipe!

Love this recipe SO MUCH, I’m making it for dinner tonight for the second time. I stick to the recipe exactly as written and the pork chops are moist, flavorful and delicious. I highly recommend this recipe.

This is a great, simple recipe. Made it as is, but for my taste it has too much sugar. Will probably reduce it a good amount. I never, ever order pork chops in restaurants bec/ they inevitably make it dry and tough. This recipe turned out a surprisingly moist pork chop! Will make again, and probably go easy on the time in oven. Probably also choose a fattier cut.

It turned out perfect, it was juicy and tasted great, I didn't change a thing

Wonderful.

This recipe is wonderful and I have made it twice now. No changes needed

very good moist and easy to make

We loved it! I’m wondering if the brown sugar could be cut back a little though.

Not sure if I’ve ever given 5 stars to anyone. This is my first. I was looking for a quick and easy pork chops recipe. I made my dry rub the night before and took my pork chops to work since I didn’t want to over marinate them. I put them in the water mixture 1 1/2 hours before leaving work. I like meats with a little bit of sweet added to them. This was fast, easy, moist, and delicious!

Excellent. My husband, who is not a pork chop fan asks for them now. Followed recipe exactly and they are moist and delicious

I hated pork chops my entire life until I found this recipe. I had always avoided making pork chops because every time I'd had them or made them myself in the past, they were dry and tough. These are incredible. I followed the recipe exactly (soaked the chops in the brine for 2 hours). They come out moist and perfectly cooked. I will say that some may not like the sweetness from the rub (though I thought it was perfect). I'm writing this after making it a second time and I'll continue to make pork chops this way for the rest of my life!

These Pork Chops were extremely moist and flavorful.

Very tasty and simple. I love this recipe. My only complaint is that I honestly don't think the peppercorns or bay leaf added much. Most brines I have used require that you heat the mixture on the cook top; then add ice cubes to cool it off. Next time I make this, I will dissolve the Kosher salt in 2 cups of water low over heat along with the bay leaf and peppercorns; let it sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes; then use 2 cups of ice to cool off the mixture before I add my pork chops. I think that will bring out the flavors of the peppercorns and bay leaf. If I'm in a hurry and don't want to go through that process, I'll probably just use the salt and water for my brine and save the peppercorns and bay leaf since they didn't really add much. Otherwise a great recipe. As soon as there are nectarines or peaches at my grocery store, I'll try Chef John's nectarine salsa. Sounds like a great combo!

This is surprisingly good! I was missing onion and mustard powder. So I squeezed a bit of mustard and mixed it all. It turned out very good. I'll make it again.

I really loved it. Didn't know I could brine pork. I will do this again.
