Creating your own delicious Slow-Cooker Pulled Pork is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Pork: Trim any excess fat from the pork shoulder and cut it into large chunks if necessary.
2. Mix Seasonings: In a small bowl, combine smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
3. Season the Meat: Rub the seasoning mixture all over the pork shoulder, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
4. Place in Slow Cooker: Put the seasoned pork into the slow cooker. Pour in the apple cider vinegar and chicken broth.
5. Add BBQ Sauce: Drizzle half of the barbecue sauce over the pork. Reserve the other half for serving.
6. Cook: Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours, until the pork is tender and easily shredded with a fork.
7. Shred the Pork: Once cooked, remove the pork from the slow cooker and place it on a large cutting board. Using two forks, shred the meat into bite-sized pieces.
8. Mix with Sauce: Return the shredded pork to the slow cooker, mixing it with the remaining barbecue sauce to combine fully.
9. Rest: Allow the shredded pork to sit in the sauce for about 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to blend.
10. Serve: Prepare your buns or tortillas, and load them with the delicious pulled pork.
