Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork

    Trim excess fat from the pork shoulder and cut it into large chunks.

  2. 2

    Season the Pork

    In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. Rub this spice mixture all over the pork pieces.

  3. 3

    Prep the Vegetables

    Dice the onion and mince the garlic cloves.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Sear the Pork

    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside, leaving the drippings in the skillet. Add the seasoned pork pieces to the skillet and sear on all sides until browned.

  2. 5

    Cook the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

  3. 6

    Combine Ingredients for Braising

    In a large slow cooker, combine the seared pork, sautéed vegetables, apple cider vinegar, chicken broth, and honey. Crumble the crispy bacon on top.

  4. 7

    Slow Cook

    Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or until the pork is tender and easily shredded.

Serving

  1. 8

    Shred the Pork

    Once cooked, remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred with two forks.

  2. 9

    Serve

    Return the shredded pork to the slow cooker, mix with the juices, and serve hot. Enjoy your Porkey!
