Steps:
- Make the brine: Combine the water, bay leaves, garlic, peppercorns, and salt in a medium pot over medium heat and stir until the salt is dissolved.
- Remove the brine from heat and stir in the ice cubes.
- Once the brine is cooled, add the pork chops to a glass dish and pour the brine over. Chill in the refrigerator for 1-10 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
- Remove the pork chops from the brine and pat dry. Season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat the oil in a large cast iron or other ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat until nearly smoking. Add the pork chops and sear without disturbing until caramelized and browned on the first side, about 2 minutes, then flip and sear on the other side.

Steps:
- Soak the chops in brine or inject with hot-pepper liquid 1 to 24 hours before cooking. (To inject chops, fill the syringe with liquid, insert about 2 inches into the side of each chop and inject.)
- Remove the chops from the brine and dry with paper towels.

Reduce the heat to medium and add water to a depth of about 1/4 inch. Cover the pan and cook 7 minutes, adjusting the heat so the water simmers steadily, adding water as needed.
- Turn the chops and cook until they reach an internal temperature of 145 to160 degrees, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the pan, cover and let stand 5 minutes.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use bone-in, thick-cut pork chops.
- Sear the pork chops in a hot skillet before braising them. This will help to develop a nice crust and lock in the juices.
- Use a variety of vegetables in your braising liquid. This will add flavor and color to the dish.
- Braise the pork chops for at least 1 hour, or until they are tender. The longer you braise them, the more flavorful they will be.
- Serve the pork chops with mashed potatoes, rice, or your favorite side dish.
