Brined Pork Cutlets

Author, broadcaster and founder of the Australian Barbecue Academy, Bob Hart, shares his Brined Pork Cutlets recipe as published in his book, Heat & Smoke.

As published in Heat & Smoke

Brining pork cutlets before exposing them to fierce heat over charcoal is a fine idea…

Ingredients:

  • 4 pork cutlets
  • ½ cup sea salt
  • 330ml cider
  • fresh herbs
  • peppercorns

Method:

Mix half a cup of sea salt with the contents of a 330ml bottle of cider.

Add some fresh herbs pounded with some black peppercorns.

Put the brine, with the cutlets, in a shallow dish or into a large zipped plastic bag.

Refrigerate for at least four hours before you cook the cutlets. But never for longer than eight hours or they may become over-salted and lose their sparkle.
