I could never get it to cook in the time they describe, so I adjusted that. Otherwise, it&#8217;s a delicious and almost impossible to mess up. This one is not quick, but it is easy. This would probably work in the crock pot, but I&#8217;ve never tried it. I just do it low and slow in my Dutch oven in the oven.<\/p>\n<p>My favorite part of this is actually the left-overs. Put the shredded pork in a pan and cook until crispy&#8230;OMG, heavenly. Makes great tacos with corn tortillas and a little cilantro.<\/p>\n<p>What you need:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>3-4 lb pork shoulder (boneless or bone-in&#8230;go heavier if you get bone-in)<\/li>\n<li>1 TBS salt<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 tsp cumin<\/li>\n<li>1.5 TBS garlic powder<\/li>\n<li>1 tsp black pepper<\/li>\n<li>juice of a lime or lemon or orange<\/li>\n<li>1 onion, sliced<\/li>\n<li>1 bay leaf<\/li>\n<li>6 or so cloves of fresh garlic (optional, I&#8217;ve actually stopped adding the extra garlic)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What to do:<\/p>\n<p>Mix the salt, cumin, garlic powder\u00a0and black pepper together. Squeeze the juice over the spices and rub it all over the pork shoulder. Using a knife, make a deep slit in the pork and shove a garlic clove into the meat. Randomly insert the garlic cloves all over the pork shoulder.Put the pork shoulder in a Dutch oven (or slow cooker, I guess) with the sliced onion and bay leave and cook at 300 for 4-ish hours until it shreds easily. Bone-in will take longer to cook. It&#8217;s almost impossible to overcook this. It&#8217;s good just shredded, but we freeze leftovers and then cook them in a pan until they get crispy!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_406\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/worldofgrey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/img_2402.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-406\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-406 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/worldofgrey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/img_2402-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-406\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ready for the oven!<\/p><\/div>\n<p><object id=\"__symantecPKIClientMessenger\" style=\"display: none;\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\"><\/object><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_410\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/worldofgrey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/img_2405.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-410\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-410 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/worldofgrey.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/img_2405-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-410\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">All shredded up and ready for eatin&#8217;!<\/p><\/div>\n<p><object id=\"__symantecPKIClientMessenger\" style=\"display: none;\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\"><\/object><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I discovered this recipe on Marks Daily Apple and have changed it just a bit.
