Equipment

  • Slow Cooker

Ingredients

  • 6-8 thin boneless pork chops diced
  • ¾ cup diced onion
  • 1 Tablespoon garlic salt
  • 1 (20oz) can pineapple tidbits drained
  • 1½ cups ketchup
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup white vinegar
  • ½ cup honey
  • ½ cup soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon ginger
  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard

Instructions

  • Mix all ingredients together in crock pot and cook on high for 4-5 hours or low for 6-8 hours. Serve over rice.

Notes

  • If the pork is looking dry or if you accidentally overcook it, try adding a little bit of either chicken broth, lemon juice, or even a tad bit of apple cider vinegar to the pork depending on the flavor you are going for. 
  • You can use the cooking juices to make gravy by straining the pork from it and adding a cornstarch and water slurry to a pot and cooking it till it thickens up.
  • You can use pineapple chunks to replace the tidbits, just stain the pineapple juice and chop the pineapple up more so it is less than bite-sized consistency.
