Buttermilk Marinated Pork Chops Recipe 445

GRANNY'S BUTTERMILK FRIED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Sprinkle both sides of pork chops lightly with seasoning salt. I like Garlic & Pepper Seasoning salt, but Lawry's is good, so is Old Bay.
• Place chops into a ziplock bag and pour in the buttermilk. Squeeze air out of the bag before you close it, and mush it around a little to make sure that all chops are coated with the buttermilk. LeT stand in the fridge for several hours.
• In a pie plate, mix together flour, 1/8 tsp black pepper, and 1/2 tsp seasoning salt. more or less to your taste.
• Heat oil in a large heavy frying pan to medium high heat. Oil should reach slightly less than 1/2 inch deep in the pan.
• Dip buttermilk coated chops in flour mixture making sure that it is completely coated. Repeat with all chops.
• When oil is hot, add chops and let cook uncovered for about 2 minutes. Turn down heat to medium low and let cook uncovered until bottoms are browned and red juices start to accumulate over the bones.
• Turn over with tongs, cover pan with a lid, then turn down heat slightly and let cook until browned on the bottoms.
• Transfer to a sheet of crinkled foil. Wrap foil loosely around chops and let rest for about 5 minutes.

BUTTERMILK PORK CHOPS WITH CORN RELISH

Steps:

• Make the brine: Combine the buttermilk, brown sugar, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 3 tablespoons salt, the garlic, bay leaves, hot sauce and peppercorns in a large bowl. Remove 4 wide strips of lemon zest with a vegetable peeler and add to the brine; squeeze in the juice of half of the lemon. Pierce both sides of the pork chops a few times with a paring knife. Add the pork to the brine, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
• Remove the pork chops from the refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling. Preheat a grill to medium high and lightly brush the grates with vegetable oil. Remove the pork from the brine, letting the excess drip off, and transfer to the grill. Cover and cook until marked, about 7 minutes. Flip and continue cooking, uncovered, until the other side is marked, about 7 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, rub the corn with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt. Wrap each ear in foil and place on the grill. Grill, turning occasionally, until charred, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the pork from the grill; let rest 5 minutes. Cut the corn kernels from the cobs. Combine the corn, the juice of the remaining 1/2 lemon, the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the parsley and chives in a bowl and toss; season with salt. Serve with the pork chops.

BUTTERMILK-BRINED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• For the pickled red cabbage slaw: In a small saucepan, add the vinegar, sugar, bay leaves, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 cup water and bring to a boil. Put the onions and cabbage in a large heatproof bowl or container and pour the boiling liquid over them. Toss to coat. Let the mixture sit for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator and up to overnight. Right before serving, add the parsley.
• For the pork chops: In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk, hot sauce, granulated garlic, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Add the brine and pork chops to a large ziptop bag, making sure the pork chops are evenly coated. Close tightly. Allow the chops to sit for 2 hours on the counter and up to 4 hours in the refrigerator.
• Set up a breading station with one plate of the flour, one bowl of the eggs and one plate of the breadcrumbs.
• Remove the pork chops from the brine and allow any excess to drip off. Bread the pork chops by evenly coating them in the flour, followed by the egg and finishing with the breadcrumbs.
• Fit a rimmed baking sheet with a wire rack. Pour enough oil into a 12-inch cast-iron skillet to come halfway up the sides of the pork chops and heat over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the pork chops to the skillet in batches and shallow-fry until golden brown or a thermometer reads 135 degrees F, 3 to 5 minutes per side. (If the pork chop breading is getting too dark while cooking in the oil, finish the pork chops in the oven at 350 degrees F until an internal temperature of 135 to 140 degrees F is reached.) Remove the chops to the baking sheet and season with salt.
• Serve the chops with the slaw and mustard.
