Pulled Pork

Prepare the Pork
Trim excess fat from the pork shoulder and cut it into large chunks for easier cooking.

Season the Pork
In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture thoroughly over the pork chunks.

Cook the Pork
Place the pork shoulder in a slow cooker. Chop the onion and garlic, and add them to the slow cooker along with the apple cider vinegar and BBQ sauce. Cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours, until the pork is tender and shreds easily.

Shred the Pork
Once cooked, remove the pork from the slow cooker and let it rest for a few minutes. Using two forks, shred the pork into bite-sized pieces.
