Heat the vinegar for 3 minutes in the microwave and add the salt, brown sugar, peppercorns, & mustard. Let sit for a few minutes for the flavors to mingle, then add the ice to cool it down.

Tell your guests it's iced bubble-tea and serve.

Or, get really nice pork chops from your hippy butcher. These are heritage breed, grass-fed pigs that live & eat better than any pig should. (To be fair, I expect these little piggies hardly ever have pork chops for dinner.)

Using a paring knife, cut a pocket into each chop. Minimize the size of the opening, but cut all the way in to the bone and angle forward and back, getting as much volume in there as possible; you'll need the room later.

Soak the chops, covered, in the fridge for a couple hours, turning halfway through.
