Spray the slow cooker crock with nonstick cooking spray.
Place pork chops in the bottom of the slow cooker.
In a medium bowl, mix the ketchup, soy sauce, honey, garlic cloves, onion powder, ginger, and salt and pepper until well combined.
Pour the sauce mixture over the pork chops.
Cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 4-5 hours. Pork is thoroughly cooked at 145℉.
Set pork chops aside on a plate, reserving the sauce in the slow cooker.
Mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl and whisk until well combined.
Pour the mixture into the slow cooker and stir into the sauce.
Return the pork chops to the slow cooker and cook for another 15 minutes on high or until the sauce is as thick as you like it.
Garnish with parsley before serving.

Slowly reheat in a baking dish, covered with aluminum foil on low heat (somewhere between 200-250℉) which will help prevent them from drying out.

Storage:

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.

Tips:

At the grocery store, choose pork chops that are bright pinkish-red, with light flecks of fat throughout. Avoid pork that's pale or chops that have a dark-colored bone.
Put everything except the cornstarch together in a freezer bag and freeze uncooked. Thaw out in the fridge the night before you're ready to serve, dump everything in the crockpot and finish the recipe as instructed! Easiest meal EVER.
It’s a good idea to use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the pork chops. The FDA recommends an internal temperature of 145℉ for pork.
