Ingredients You’ll Need
- 3-4 lbs of pork shoulder
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth

Let’s Get Cooking!
Now that we’ve gathered all our ingredients, it’s time to start the cooking process. Follow these simple steps and you’re on your way to a delectable dish!
- First, season the pork shoulder with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and cumin. Make sure to rub it in well so all those flavors can shine.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the pork shoulder on all sides until it’s beautifully browned. This helps lock in those juicy flavors!
- Once seared, transfer the pork to a slow cooker or a heavy pot. Toss in the diced onion and minced garlic around the pork.
- Pour in the chicken broth and barbecue sauce. Sprinkle the brown sugar over the top. Trust me, this gives it that sweet touch we love!
- If you’re using a slow cooker, cover it and cook on low for about 8 hours, or until the pork is tender enough to shred. If you’re using a pot, cover it and let it simmer on low heat for about 3-4 hours, checking occasionally.
- Once the pork is ready, take two forks and shred the meat right in the pot. Mix everything well to combine the flavors.
- Serve it up on buns or tortillas with your favorite sides. Maybe a little coleslaw on top? Yes, please!
