How To "Dry-Brine" Pork Chops - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 large center-cut bone-in pork chops
    2 tablespoons kosher salt
    1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    Vegetable oil for grilling
Preparation
    Mix kosher salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl to make the dry brine. Generously apply mixture to both sides of pork chops. Transfer chops to a rack on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate uncovered 18 to 24 hours.
    Preheat grill to medium or medium-high heat. Brush pork chops on each side with a few drops of vegetable oil.
    Grill chops until internal temperature reaches 135 degrees F (60 degrees C), turning to evenly brown on each side. Transfer to platter and allow to rest 5 minutes.
