4 cups water
2 cups orange juice
1/2 cup salt
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons ground thyme
4 boneless pork chops
2 grapefruits, juiced
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
1 grapefruit, peeled and sectioned
salt and black pepper to taste
The relish is great, but the chops were dry. I had grapefruit juice and oranges, so I used grapefruit juice instead of OJ for the brine, and orange sections instead of grapefruit for the relish.
Oddly, my review is the exact opposite of the previous reviewers: the pork was good and the relish was awful. It may have something to do with the fact that the previous reviewer reversed the use of orange and grapefruit. I also halved the salt. I think this would probably be excellent if the grapefruit was omitted altogether and oranges used in their place.
