1/2cuphoneylocal, organic honey is always preferable
1/4cupred wine vinegar
3tbspolive oil
1onionpeeled and cut in half
3 to 3 1/2lbpork shoulder
Instructions
In a medium sized mixing bown, mix the first 5 ingredients (all the spices) together in a bowl.
Pour in the honey, vinegar, and olive oil. Stir to form a paste.
Place the onion halves at the bottom of the slow cooker. Top it with the pork shoulder. Pour the spice paste over the top of the pork. It is okay if it drips down into the bottom.
Cook on LOW for 7-8 hours or until the meat is tender enough to easily shred with a fork. (If you double the recipe, you will increase the cooking time.)
Refrigerate the leftovers. This also freezes well.
Personally, I love this with hot sauce. We have a collection of hot sauces at home and I am making it my personal goal to work through them all to see which one is best on this pork. If you are so inclined, this is also fantastic on whole wheat, organic buns for Pulled Pork Sandwiches.
