2 lb pork loin
1 can (20 oz) pineapple chunks in juice, drained (reserve juice)
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup brown sugar
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp ginger, minced

Place the pork loin in the slow cooker and pour the mixture over it.
Add the pineapple chunks around the pork. Pour in the chicken broth.
Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours until the pork is tender.
