Directions

Step 1

For the brine, combine water, kosher salt, honey, peppercorns, red pepper flakes, garlic, and rosemary and bring to a simmer. Allow to simmer for 5 minutes, then pour over the crushed ice cubes. This should yield a quart of brine.

Step 2

Make sure the brine is chilled to 40 degrees before brining the pork chops. Place the four pork chops into the brine and refrigerate for a minimum of 6 hours and a maximum of 12 hours.

Step 3

For the chutney, heat the honey in a saucepan on the grill (you can do this on your stove as well). The honey will bubble as it reduces, and be careful it doesn’t scorch. Allow it to reduce and caramelize slightly, then add both kinds of vinegar. Reduce by half, then add the water and the peaches. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes, until reduced and not runny. Add the chopped rosemary and salt and pepper.

Step 4

Set up your charcoal grill for direct grilling. You want the grill to be at 550 degrees. Remove the pork chops from the brine and pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper. Grill the pork chops directly for 1-2 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees. Remove the chops from the grill and rest 10 minutes before serving, topped with the peach chutney.
