BEER BRINED PORK STEAKS
Active Time : 30 Minutes Total Time : 45 Minutes Serves : 6INGREDIENTS
- 1 can Miller Lite beer
- 1/4 cup kosher salt
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 3 1/2 cups ice water
- 1 cup orange juice
- 5 pounds boneless pork shoulder cut into 1 inch steaks
- 1/4 cup whole-grain mustard
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil additional for grilling
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 lemons halved
DIRECTIONS
Combine the beer, salt and sugar in a saucepan and cook over low heat just until the sugar and salt have dissolved, approximately 3 to 5 minutes.
Remove from the heat and combine with the ice water and orange juice to make a brine.
Place the pork steaks in a large bowl or ziplock bag and pour the brine over so they are completely submerged. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
When you are ready to cook, prepare the grill with a medium low flame.
Combine the Miller Lite Whole Grain Mustard, oil, and honey in a bowl. Remove the pork steaks from the brine and pat them dry, then rub a couple teaspoons of the mixture over each side.
Grill the steaks with the lid closed until they are caramelized with some deep browning along the edges, approximately 12 to 14 minutes.
Flip, close the lid again, and cook for another 10 minutes or so until the pork is completely cooked.
Pull the steaks off the heat and let them rest for about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, bring your grill up to a high flame, brush a little more oil on the flat face of each lemon half, and grill them for 2 to 3 minute, just until they are charred.
Thinly slice the steaks against the grain and squeeze half of a lemon over each one.
