Instructions
- Chop the peppers and onions into large one-inch chunks. Slice the pork chops into about 1 inch cubes, trimming them as needed. Spray the base of the slow cooker with cooking oil lightly, then place the pork chops, peppers and onions in the slow cooker.
- Drain the pineapple juice from the pineapple and set the pineapple juice to the side. Add the pineapple to the slow cooker.
- In a small mixing bowl add brown sugar, pineapple juice, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, ketchup, garlic, ginger and pepper. Mix the sauce well then pour it over the pork in the slow cooker. Stir until the pork and vegetables are evenly coated in the sauce.
- Cook on low heat for 4 hours, or until the pork is tender and registers at least 145 degrees when checked with a meat thermometer.
- Flip the slow cooker to high heat. In a small bowl mix together the cornstarch with 6 tablespoons of water and stir until dissolved. Pour the cornstarch mixture into the slow cooker, then cover and let it cook for another 20-25 minutes to thicken. Serve with steamed rice and enjoy!
Notes
- You can cook the pork on high temperature and it does cook much quicker. The pork is usually done at about two hours when cooked in a six quart slow cooker. You can check the doneness of the pork by using a meat thermometer to check the pork's temperature, it should register at least 145 degrees when safe to eat.
