I'm not one to push for brining, which actually does help improve both the flavor and texture of meat, but I will say that, in spite of my lifelong training to hate and fear undercooked pork, I have found that pork cooked medium is possibly the best, most flavorful pork I've ever eaten. Try cooking just past the safety point, which is, I believe, about 165 degrees and see if you don't just plotz over the taste.
