Pork Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork

    In a slow cooker, place the pork shoulder and add minced garlic, chopped onion, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Add Liquid

    Pour in the chicken broth and lime juice over the pork.

  3. 3

    Slow Cook

    Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or until the pork is tender and easily shreds with a fork.

  4. 4

    Shred the Pork

    Once cooked, remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded pork to the cooker to absorb more juices.
