- 3 lb boneless pork shoulder, trimmed
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tbsp smoked paprika
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 3/4 cup barbecue sauce
- Buns or tortillas, to serve
Steps
- Mix the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder and salt and rub it all over the pork.
- Put the onion and broth in the slow cooker and set the pork on top.
