Slow Cooker Apple and Onion Pulled Pork Sandwiches

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 8 hours

Total Time: 8 hours, 10 minutes

Yield: Serves about 8

Serving Size: 1 cup

Ingredients

• 3 onions, sliced
• 2 apples, peeled and cubed
• 1 bonelss pork shoulder
• 1 tbsp paprika
• 1/2 tbsp cumin
• 1/2 tbsp cinnamon
• salt to taste
• 1 tbsp honey
• 1 cup beef stock
• 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
• fresh cilantro for garnish

Directions

1. In a small bowl, combine spices (paprika, cumin, cinnamon) and salt. Rub the pork shoulder with the mixture.
2. Make a bed of onions and apples at the bottom of your slow-cooker, and place pork shoulder on it. Drizzle with honey. Pour beef stock and apple cider vinegar.
3. Cook on low for 8 hours.
4. When meat is cooked, transfer it to a plate (be careful, it will easily fall apart!) and shred it using two forks. Transfer onion and apple mixture to a colander and drain it. Keep about 1/3 of the liquid, or enough to moist the meat.
5. Combine meat, onion and apple mixture and add some liquid if necessary. Garnish with fresh cilantro.

Notes

If you're planning on having leftovers, I recommend you to keep some additional cooking liquid and use it when you reheat the meat. This way, the meat will stay moist and delicious.
