Herb Brined Porkchops
I found this recipe using the ingredient search - pork chops - and then filtered it by "grill."
These were too salty for my taste. I had two chops, but I only ate one. Made it exactly as written and grilled them on my charcoal grill.

Did you rinse the chops?

No. Was I supposed to? The recipe didn't say to do that. I brined a chicken one time and didn't rinse it and it was fine.

Different meats brine differently.
A wet brine should be rinsed.
A dry brine should be OK, plus it uses less salt than a wet brine.
Do not use additional salt in the cooking after a brine.

Well, if I was supposed to rinse them it would have been nice if she had mentioned that!

Yes that would have been nice. Unfortunately a lot of recipe posts are missing critical information, due to oversight or something else. But now you know.

How could you have not heard of P7k1c5, CA before? Everyone has heard of P7 (as we in the know call it.) Do you live under a rock FA?

I've been accused of living under a rock, LB. :-P
Oh, Canada. That explains it. I've gotten those CA's mixed up before.
