Equipment

  • slow cooker
  • medium bowl

Ingredients

  • 4 center cut pork chops
  • 1 medium white onion chopped
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • ¼ - ½ cup chicken stock
  • ½ cup soy sauce
  • ½ cup light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons garlic minced
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger

Instructions

  • Place the pork chop in the bottom of the slow cooker. Try to space the pork chops out as evenly in the bottom of the slow cooker as possible. Overlapping is fine!
  • Cover the pork chops in the chopped onion.
  • In a medium bowl, mix the ketchup, ¼ cup chicken stock, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger. Stir until everything is mixed together and no longer very thick. Reserve the remaining chicken stock for if needed later.
  • Cook on low for 3-4 hours, checking near the end for if more chicken stock is needed. The sauce is intended to thicken into a gravy, so don’t add the extra stock unless really needed or your sauce will not thicken.
  • Serve warm with rice and spoon the extra gravy over the chops and rice.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

Notes: If needed, add 2 tablespoons of cornstarch and two tablespoons of water (aka a slurry) and add to the mixture to thicken the sauce.
