Crock Pot San Fransico Chops

These have a fantastic salty/teriyaki flavor. I made the meat in the crock pot but then supplemented the meal with rice and a pineapple/veggie stir fry. Turns out that sweetness of the pineapple didn't go great with the meat. Next time I will do a regular stir fry and exclude the pineapple.
This recipe is just for the chops.

4 pork loin chops (1-inch thick)
