Chinese Pork Chops recipe

6 pork chops, about 1-inch thick (or use pork steaks)
1/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup ketchup
1 to 2 cloves garlic, mashed
Salt and pepper, to taste

Trim excess fat from pork chops and place in crock pot.

Combine brown sugar, ginger, soy sauce, ketchup, garlic, salt and pepper; pour mixture over pork chops. Cook, covered, on LOW for 4 to 6 hours, or until tender.

Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Serve with steamed white rice and/or Chinese noodles.
