These pork chops were quite good. I made them with all of the ingredients, but we got home too late to slow cook them. So, I marinated them for an hour and we grilled them. They were very yummy! If I were to grill them again, I would marinate them longer and cook them on aluminum foil instead of on the grate because the brown sugar burned them pretty quickly. We will be having these again and I will try them as a slow cooker recipe as well!

I liked that this is made out of ingredients I usually have on hand. However, it mostly tasted like ketchup and it did not have an Asian flavor like I was expecting. We both agreed to never make it again.

This rating is for the recipe as written. Far too little liquid for a 4 hour crock pot recipe and WAY too salty. Liquid didn't even cover the tops of 1 inch chops. In the end it was edible but needs lots of tweaking before I would make this again. PS. People need to stop rating reviews based on their modifications and just rate the recipe as written. Nearly every 5 star on here added ingredients or changed the recipe.

This was so easy and absolutely wonderful! Followed the recipe except for the soy sauce - only used 1/4 cup since other reviewers were concerned about the salt. Glad I did - there was plenty of sauce and it tasted amazing! The ground ginger really gives it that Asian flair. Had to thicken the sauce with a little flour since the pork chops released a good amount of liquid when cooking. All 6 huge chops fit in a single layer in the bottom of my large oval crock pot and they were done after 4 hours on low. Served it with white rice and fresh green beans and everyone raved about it. This recipe is definitely a keeper - prep was quick and easy, then you set it and forget it for a wonderful meal.

Great, but a little dry. Reduce cook time to 4.5 hours. added fresh mushrooms, pineapple juice and crushed pineapple. Also 1/8 cup catsup and 1/8 cup sweet chile sauce.

Our family liked it. I think I have heard Hoison sauce called Chinese catsup. Based on another recommendation, I used hoison sauce in place of catsup. I used half light soy sauce. For us, 4 1/2 hours was a bit long and the pork chops were starting to dry out. I also added a bit of pineapple juice towards the end based on someone else writing that they had added pineapple. Also added a little rice vinegar. I will definately make this again because even though we changed some of it, we liked the flavor and having another slow cooker recipe.

Pretty Good. have a recipe from a long time ago from a Phillipino friend that's very similar, it also has pineapple and onion added. Otherwise they're very similar tasting. With the recipe I have, you brown the chops, then the onion, add the garlic and some chicken stock, and simmer over a low to medium flame for about 2 hours. Crock pot's easier.

Have not tried this recipe yet but my Mom made a similar recipe when I was young. Will add a bottom layer of tri colored peppers and onion as we like the added veggies over our rice. Will also add a few diced green onions when I serve. Yum

This was pretty good. I just wanted something quick that I could put in the crockpot, and I had everything on hand. Like most meats cooked in a crockpot, it wasn't the most beautiful presentation, so I wouldn't serve this to guests. It's perfect for putting on in the morning and forgetting about it until dinner time. The flavor was great and the chop was tender. I'll make it again.
