ULTIMATE SLOW COOKER PULLED PORK

Steps:

• Rub the pork with salt and pepper, and then set aside while you prepare the remaining ingredients. (See notes below if you plan to sear the pork first).
• Heat oil in a wide skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic then cook, occasionally stirring, until they are sweet and browned around the edges. Stir in the tomato paste, chili powder, and cumin. Cook, stirring until the tomato paste turns from bright red to orange in color; about 3 minutes. Add the water, apple cider vinegar, and fish sauce and cook for about 1 minute, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom of the pan.
• Rest the seasoned pork in the bottom of a slow cooker then pour the onion and spice mixture on top. Wiggle the pork around the bottom of the slow cooker so that some of the onion and spice mixture slides underneath. Cover with lid and cook until the pork can be easily shredded; LOW for 6 to 8 hours or HIGH for 4 to 6.
• Turn off the slow cooker and transfer the pork to a cutting board. If the pork has a bone in it, remove and discard it. Use two forks to shred the meat, discarding any connective tissue, and large clumps of fat.
• Remove the cooking liquid and skim most of the fat from its surface. Discard the fat then set the cooking liquid aside.
• If using barbecue sauce, add it to the slow cooker and stir in the shredded pork. For even more flavor, add back some of the reserved cooking liquid. If you're not using barbecue sauce, add the shredded pork and the cooking liquid back to the slow cooker. Taste and season with salt, additional vinegar, or hot sauce as needed.

• Whilst the sauce is cooling add the vinegar( it will leave a less pungent smell in your kitchen).
• Leave the sauce until cold, it will become quite thick.
• Slash the pork several times with a sharp knife, cover completely with the sauce, place in a bowl, cover and leave in a cool place for 10-12 hours.
• When ready to cook place in your crock pot and cook on low for 10 to 12 hours (my crock pot needs the full 12 hours).
• Transfer the pork onto a cutting board and pull the meat apart to shreds with two forks.
• I then add some of the sauce to it and serve the rest on the side but you can mix the meat up with all the sauce.
• If you find the sauce too thick just add some water to it.
• Serve over warm buns and I hope you enjoy it!
