Ingredients

1 boneless or bone in pork shoulder, netting removed
2 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, peeled and chopped
4 cloves of garlic, peeling and chopped
2 tbsp tomato paste
2 tsp ground cumin
1 cup water
3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

Method

Rub the pork with the salt and pepper and then set aside while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until fragrant. Stir in the tomato paste and cumin; cook stirring for about 3 minutes. Add the water, apple cider vinegar and Worcestershire sauce and cook for about 1 minute, scraping the bottom of the pan.
Place the pork into the slow cooker and pour over the sauce. Move the pork around the sauce spread evenly over around the pork.
Cook the pork on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours or until you are easily able to shred it.
Transfer the pork to a chopping board to shred (remove the bone if needed).
Discard any fat from the surface of the liquid and then add the shredded pork back into the slow cooker and stir into the sauce.
This is delicious served roast dinner style or on fresh bread rolls with coleslaw.
