Instructions-

  • Make the sauce by adding the spices, S&P, vinegar & sugar along with the fruit juice into a bowl. Finely dice the onion and garlic and add to the slow cooker, next add the pork, pour the dressing over the pork and finish with the stock around the edge. Leave on low for 10 hours (increased from 8) or high for 6- check after 5.

  • Once cooked, remove the strings and fat cap then shred the pork, it should fall apart as in the video.
    Mix well with the sauce below and serve.

  • Troubleshooting- It really does depend on your slow cooker- age/heat retention/size.
    Leave the lid off for the last hour to thicken up sauces and turn up the heat, joints of meat, keep an eye on these, if it’s not shred-able, you can always cut in half to speed up cooking, and leave for longer on high, keep an eye on it
