Transfer the chops to the slow cooker.
Add the garlic to the drippings in the skillet and stir constantly over medium heat until the garlic is aromatic and golden (do not burn or it will taste terrible!).

Whisk the cornstarch mixture into the sauce in the slow cooker.
Return the chops to the slow cooker and turn heat up to high
Cook for 15-30 minutes, until the sauce is slightly thickened.
Alternatively, you could remove the chops from the slow cooker, pour the sauce into a deep skillet and heat to medium heat on the stove. Then add the cornstarch mix, bring sauce to a boil and let boil for 1-2 minutes until the sauce is thick. Add the pork and heat through.
