Ingredients
Ingredients•3 tablespoons paprika•2 tablespoons salt•2 teaspoons black pepper•1 teaspoon cayenne pepper•1 teaspoon garlic powder•½ teaspoon dried thyme•½ cup honey•Ό cup red wine vinegar•3 tablespoons olive oil•1 onion, peeled and cut in half•3 to 3 ½ pounds pork shoulder, cut in half
Directions
Instructions
1.In a medium size mixing bowl, mix together the first six ingredients (all of the spices) with a fork.
2.Pour in the honey, vinegar, and olive oil and stir to form a paste.
3.Place the onion in the bottom of the slow cooker. Top it with the 2 pieces of pork and then pour the honey paste over all sides of the pork pieces. It’s okay if some of it (or a lot of it) just drips down to the bottom.
4.Turn the slow cooker on to low and cook for 7 to 8 hours or until the meat is tender enough to be easily shredded with a fork.
5.Serve warm with fixings like homemade cole slaw and cornbread. My husband also likes his dipped in a little hot sauce. Refrigerate or freeze the leftovers.
