📝 Preparation Steps

First, be sure to trim large chunks of fat off of your pork. Set aside.

Next, right in the crockpot combine all remaining ingredients and whisk together.

Add your pork into the slow cooker and just turn it over a few times to get it all nice and coated.

Set your slow cooker to high and cook for ⏱️ 6-7 hours (I recommend checking it after ⏱️ 4 hours and turning it to low if needed. Some slow cookers cook faster than others)

Once your meat is able to be shredded with a fork go ahead and shred the entire thing up. I like to use electric beaters for this (just be careful at first- it might splatter!)

Allow it to simmer for ~⏱️ 30-60 minutes on low to ideally to allow the sauce to really soak in (if you're in a rush you can skip this! I understand!)

Now enjoy! Scoop some onto a taco, a salad, over rice or eat on it's own!
