When grilling, I baste mine with Pig Stand basting sauce, then brush with Jack Miller's cut with Pig Stand once each side a minute or so before takin off the grill.

I like them thick. That way you can get a good crust and not overcook them. They can get dry quickly.

Sometimes, I sear them in a cast iron skillet and finish in the oven, but not for long. Depends in the thickness. I put them in at 325-350.

I grill them initially over high heat to get the sear and then move them over and cut the fire down. Sometimes, I take them off and finish those in the oven as well.

I don't broil them.

DO NOT cook to 165. 145 is a good final temp.

cook 'em in a covered pot with onions on the stove. add a little water after the chops have cooked on each side. i like to let each side 'burn' just a little. add onions. flip a few times.

Here is the answer to your question. I learned it from Cook's Illustrated.

Start your chops in a COLD PAN and turn to medium-high heat.

Try it just once. Just flip the chops when juice appears on top and don't overcook. You don't have to put a brown crust on them, the juiciness will provide plenty of flavor.

Two pages and no mention of brine?
