    I made this yesterday. When I went to the store the pork shoulder was on sale, buy one get one free. So I threw caution to the wind and picked up two. Then adjusted the recipe from the above site.

    Ingredients:

    5lbs of pork shoulder roast (boneless)
    2 yellow onions, sliced
    5 small apples, cored and sliced
    1 1/2 cups beef or chicken broth OR water (I used my own homemade beef stock)
    1 tablespoon raw honey
    2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger (use ground ginger if you don’t have fresh on hand)
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
    1 teaspoon chipolte powder
    1/2 teaspoon pepper
    2 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
    1 bay leaf

    Instructions:
    Pull out your crockpot.
    Add your broth or water, then onions, then pork, then apples then all your spices/garlic clove/and bay leaf.
    Cover.
    Cook for 8-10 hours on low or 6-8 hours on high.
    Before the last hour pull out pork roasts and use tongs or a fork to shred your pork.
    Run an immersion blender through the bits in the pot till broken up a bit
    Put shredded pork back in crock pot and stir to combine.
    Finish cooking for about another hour.

    Makes a lot. Had some for dinner last night, for lunch today and it will be around for a few days. Froze some too.
