Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 bone-in beef chops (1-inch thick, about 8 oz each)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil for cooking
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup salt (for brining)
  • 1/4 cup sugar (for brining)
  • 4 cups water (for brining)

Instructions

  1. Brine (Optional): Dissolve 1/4 cup salt and 1/4 cup sugar in 4 cups of water. Submerge the beef chops for 30 minutes to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
  2. Remove the chops from brine (if used), pat dry, and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  3. In a small saucepan, combine maple syrup, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and garlic powder. Simmer over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes until reduced by one-third.
  4. Heat vegetable oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sear each side of the seasoned beef chops for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Brush with glaze, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook an additional 2-3 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  6. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving, drizzling with any remaining glaze.
