Sweet And Sour Pork In Crock Pot

Hey there, foodie friend! Today, we're going on a culinary adventure to make Sweet and Sour Pork in the most chill way possible - in a crock pot! No stress, no fuss, just deliciousness.

Gather Your Troops (Ingredients, That Is)

First things first, let's round up our troops. You'll need:

• 1.5 lbs (680g) of pork shoulder, cut into chunks
• 1/2 cup (60g) of all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp of salt
• 1/2 tsp of black pepper
• 1/2 cup (120ml) of ketchup
• 1/4 cup (60ml) of apple cider vinegar
• 1/4 cup (50g) of granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup (60ml) of soy sauce
• 1/2 cup (75g) of green bell pepper, chopped
• 1/2 cup (75g) of pineapple chunks (canned is fine)
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp of grated ginger

See, not so bad, right? Now, let's get cooking!

Time to March In (Preparation)

Alright, so we've got our ingredients. Now, let's get them ready for battle.

First, toss your pork chunks in a bag with the flour, salt, and pepper. Shake it like a polaroid picture (too old a reference? Sorry, I'm showing my age here.) until the pork is well coated.

Next, in your crock pot, mix together the ketchup, vinegar, sugar, and soy sauce. Stir in the garlic and ginger. Then, add the pork, green pepper, and pineapple. Give it a good mix, making sure the pork is well coated in the sauce.

Now, here's where the magic happens. Cover that bad boy up and let it cook on low for 6-8 hours. Or, if you're in a hurry (or just really hungry), you can cook it on high for 3-4 hours. Either way, your crock pot will do all the work while you kick back and relax.
