Slow Cooker Sweet and Sour Pork image

A delicious crock pot recipe -I believe it originally came from a cooking magazine, but I'm not sure which one or what month/year. The sauce is flavorful and mild--not obnoxiously sweet like you might imagine Chinese-food type sweet and sour. We served it over rice--yummy
