Brined Boston Butt Shoulder Steaks with 'Nduja and Honey

Submerge pork shoulder steaks in the liquid and brine for 2-4 hours in the refrigerator.
Remove from brine and pat dry with paper towels.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat sear one side of the shoulder steaks until deeply caramelized, about 2-4 minutes.
Flip shoulder steak to sear on the other side, and top with 2-3 slices of ’nduja.
Flip steaks out onto a plate ’nduja side down.
Drizzle with honey.
Serve with a salad of mixed greens dressed with olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
