Steps:
- Make the brine:
- Bring salt, brown sugar, peppercorns, coriander seeds, mustard seeds, thyme, bay leaves, 2 cups apple cider, and 2 cups water to a low boil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, whisking, until sugar and salt dissolve, about 4 minutes. Transfer brine to a large bowl and add remaining 2 cups apple cider and 2 cups ice. Let cool to room temperature.
- Place pork and brine in a large resealable plastic bag; turn to coat. Seal and chill at least 8 hours.
- Roast the pork:
- Remove pork from brine and pat dry with paper towels. Let sit at room temperature 1 hour.
- Place rack in lower third of oven; preheat to 400°F.
- Season pork all over with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Sear pork, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides (including ends), 10-12 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine mustard, brown sugar, syrup, and thyme in a medium bowl.
- Pour apple cider into a large roasting pan or glass baking dish. Transfer pork, fat side up, to pan. Brush all over with mustard mixture. Roast pork, basting every 15 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 140°F, 50-70 minutes.
- Transfer to a cutting board and let rest at least 15 minutes before slicing.
- Do Ahead
- Pork can be brined up to 24 hours ahead. Keep chilled in plastic bag.

CIDER-BRINED PORK CHOPS WITH PERFECT PAN SAUCE
This brine has a higher concentration of salt than most, allowing it to add flavor and moisture to your chops in as little as 30 minutes. If you have more time, brine them up to 4 hours for maximum flavor, but no longer or the pork will be too salty. Add the easy pan sauce to your repertoire and make it your own by using white wine or dark beer instead of cider and varying the herbs based on what you like and have on hand.

Steps:
- For the brine: combine the salt, brown sugar, peppercorns, coriander, mustard seeds, allspice berries, bay leaves, thyme and 1 1/2 cups water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and stir to dissolve the sugar and salt, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and pour in the cold cider. Let the brine cool to room temperature.
- Put the pork chops in a large resealable plastic bag and pour in the brine. Press out excess air and seal tightly. Put the bag in a shallow container so it can lay flat and refrigerate for 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
- Drain the chops, rinse and pat dry. Discard the brine.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the chops (work in batches if necessary; do not crowd the pan) and cook, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and cooked through, 13 to 14 minutes. (If the chops are browning too quickly or the pan drippings start to burn, lower the heat.) Remove to a plate.
- For the sauce: Discard all but 1 tablespoon fat from the pan. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and place over medium heat. Add the garlic, rosemary and thyme and cook until sizzling, about 30 seconds. Sprinkle in the flour and stir to make a paste. Whisk in the cider and bring to a simmer.
- Simmer until very thick, about 1 minute. Add the stock, bring to a simmer and cook until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in the cream and simmer to bring the sauce together, about 1 minute. Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter, vinegar and parsley. Season to taste with salt. Add the chops to the pan and simmer, turning occasionally, until just heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve garnished with fresh thyme and rosemary sprigs.
FRIED PORK CHOPS WITH HOMEMADE TABLE GRAVY
Steps:
- For the pork chops: Pour the buttermilk into a shallow baking dish and set aside. In another shallow baking dish, stir together the flour and 1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons of the House Seasoning and set aside.
- Stir together the hot sauce, mustard and the remaining teaspoon of the House Seasoning in a small bowl. Rub the seasoning onto both sides of the pork chops. Place the pork chops in the buttermilk and turn to coat completely.
- Pour enough oil into a large cast-iron skillet to come 1 inch up the sides. Heat over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer reaches 350 degrees F.
- Working with one piece at a time, remove the pork chops from the buttermilk, letting any excess drip off. Coat in the flour mixture and carefully add to the hot oil. Fry, turning once, until the chops are browned and reach an internal temperature of 150 degrees F, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a clean wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet to drain.
- For the table gravy: Meanwhile, drain the oil from the skillet. Melt the butter over medium-high heat, then whisk in the flour and cook for a minute, whisking constantly. Whisk in the half-and-half, a little at a time. Bring the gravy to a simmer and simmer until thickened, whisking occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the House Seasoning and season with salt and pepper.
- Stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
CIDER BRINED PORK ROAST
One of the best pork roasts I have had in a long time! One of my friends prepared this for a "girl's only weekend" and shared the recipe with us. Tender and so moist! Tastes like you fussed over but so easy to prepare! Be sure to allow at least eight or more hours (better overnight) for the roast to brine. I allowed 24 hours prep time for brining.

Steps:
- Brine:.
- Place black peppercorns in a plastic zip-top bag and seal. With a meat mallet, crush peppercorns slightly. Note that not all peppercorns should be crushed, but only a few to release flavor.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the cider and salt until the salt dissolves.
- Place the brine in a large zip-top bag (or if the bag isn't large enough to fit all the pork chops, divide the brine into 2 zip-top bags).
- If using 2 bags, add to each bag half the peppercorns, 1 bay leaf, and 3 garlic cloves. If using 1 large bag add the full amount of the peppercorns, bay leaf and garlic. Mix to incorporate seasonings evenly.
- Place chops evenly in bag(s), seal and place in the refrigerator for 4 hours or brine overnight.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Set oven rack to the middle position. Drain the chops well and discard brine, blot dry if desired. Remove the whole peppercorns that are stuck to chops and discard.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter and depending on the size of your skillet, add 2 to 3 pork chops. Cook until browned on each side, 3 - 5 minutes. Turn the chops and cook until browned on the other side, 3 - 4 minutes more. Repeat with remaining chops. Set the skillet aside and DO NOT drain off butter and brown bits in the skillet.
- Layer the chops in a 9 x 13 inch baking dish and bake until pale pink in the center for 15 - 20 minutes, being careful not to overcook to prevent them from drying.
- While pork chops are in the oven or before placing chops in oven, prepare your sauce:.
- Return skillet to medium-high heat and add the cider. As it bubbles, use a wooden spoon to scrape up brown bits on the bottom of skillet. Add the chicken broth, turn the heat to high, and boil until the liquid is reduced to about 1 cup, 8 - 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in cream and mustard. Season with salt and freshly grated black pepper to taste.
- Once chops have completed cooking, remove from oven and place in serving tray. Pour sauce over the chops and serve immediately.
- NOTE: If using bone-in, they may take longer to cook. Also depending on the thickness of your chops, keep a close eye on the cooking time.

FAVORITE BRINE FOR PORK/CIDER MAPLE
Tried and true! I have made this several times now. It's our fav. brine for pork loin, or pork loin chops. I tend to make this on holidays when grandma is coming -- she's decided she doesn't like turkey anymore. Well, this is a great substitute! Oh, I have also used pineapple juice when cider wasn't in season, worked great! Cooking time denotes marinade time.

Steps:
- Stir the hot water and salt together until the salt is dissolved. Add the apple cider, syrup, sugar and pepper. Cool to below 45 degrees F. in the refrigerator.
- Trim any excess external fat from the meat. Submerge the pork in the brine in a large bowl or small crock; make sure the meat stays under the surface during curing by using a heavy plate to weight it down. Refrigerate the pork in the cure. The chops should take 4-6 hours in the brine; the tenderloin, 6-8 hours; and the loin, 1-2 days. (Bone-in pork can take a day longer in the brine because of the bone, which gives it a larger diameter.) If marinating for a day or longer, stir the brine daily and turn the pork occasionally.
- To test flavor of brined pork, cut a small piece off the meat, pat it dry and pan-fry it. If the meat is sufficiently flavorful, remove it from the brine, let it come to room temperature and grill. If not, leave it in the brine and test again later.
- I usually do a 4-6 lb pork loin and marinate 24 hours. I have cooked in oven, indirect heat on grill and rotisserie. They have all turned out fabulous! This makes a VERY moist piece of meat when brined this way.

SPICE-BRINED TURKEY WITH CIDER PAN GRAVY (COOKING LIGHT)
This is a very flavorful and moist turkey. This turkey brines overnight and I showed that time in the prep time. I used 1 cup of the brine instead of broth in the roasting pan.

Steps:
- Combine the first 7 ingredients in a large stockpot/roasting pan and heat over medium-heat until salt is dissolved. Cool completely.
- Remove giblets from the turkey and place turkey into stockpot. Turn to coat, cover, and refrigerate for 24 hours, turning occasionally.
- Preheat oven to 450°F Rinse turkey and pat dry. Pour 1 cup of broth into roasting pan, place turkey breast up and bake for 30 minutes.
- Reduce oven to 350°F and continue to cook for 1 1/2 hours until thermometer placed in the meaty part of the thigh registers 165°F.
- Let stand 30 minutes. Remove skin.
- Place a ziplock bag inside a 2 cup measure. Pour drippings into the bag. Let stand for 10 minutes so the fat will rise to the top.
- Seal bag and snip off a corner of the bag. Drain the drippings into a measuring cup, stopping before reaching the fat layer. Reserve 1 tbsp of the fat.
- Combine the drippings, remaining broth, and cider in a small bowl. Place roasting pan on stove top over medium heat, scraping to loosen the browned bits. Add flour and reserved fat to pan, cook 1 minute stirring frequently. Slowly add broth mixture, stirring with a whisk. Cook until thickened, about 4 minutes.
- Stir in black pepper.
