Looks delicious. Usually when I do pulled pork it's on the smoker, but I would love to try it in the slow cooker like this sometime with a Mexican flare. It's usually one of my go-to dishes when we eat out, so doing it myself would be cool.
I use anywhere between 3 to 5 lbs of pork shoulder that is cut in half. Spray the crock pot with cooking spray. Lay meat in your crock pot. Poke it with fork all over to allow the marinade to get in.
In a small bowl mix: 3 tablespoons smoked paprika, 1 tablespoon sea salt, 1 tablespoon ground black pepper, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, and 1 tsp ground mustard. Mix these dry spices together.
Add 1/3 cup of liquid smoke (this is because you aren't using a smoker, therefore it is a key ingredient!). Mix it very well.
Pour this mixture over the pork. Rub it on top and bottom, all over the meat.
Cover the crockpot. Cook on high for 5 to 6 hours, or on low for 7 to 9 hours.
When cooked, remove the crock pot, and use to forks to shred!
Enjoy this recipe, @bozz!

That sounds like a perfect size. My wife doesn't really eat pork like that, so it would be mostly me eating it over the course of a few days. Thanks for the recipe and the tips!
Probably going to be a while, but I will! Have you ever done one in a pressure cooker?
YES, I have! Same ingredients, cook on high for an hour. Easy-peasy!
If you wish to slow-cook it in the oven, you can too.
For instant pot, 30 to 40 mins will do with a natural release of pressure.
