Prep Time

    •    Prep time: 15 minutes
    •    Cook time: 4 hours 45 minutes
    •    Yield: Serves 4

Ingredients

    •    3 Tbsp light brown sugar
    •    2 tsp hot paprika
    •    1 tsp mustard powder
    •    ½ tsp ground cumin
    •    Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
    •   1 (3- to 4-lb) boneless pork shoulder, trimmed of excess fat
    •   2 tsp vegetable oil
    •   ½ cup apple cider vinegar, plus more to taste
    •   3 Tbsp tomato paste
    •   6 potato buns
    •  Barbecue sauce and prepared coleslaw, for serving

Method

1. Combine 1 tablespoon brown sugar, the paprika, mustard powder, cumin, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub the spice mixture all over the pork.
   
2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet; add the pork and cook, turning, until browned on all sides, 5 minutes. Remove the pork and transfer to a plate; whisk 3/4 cup water into the drippings in the skillet. Transfer the liquid to a 5-to-6-quart slow cooker.
   
3. Add the vinegar, tomato paste, the remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar and 2 cups water to the slow cooker and whisk to combine. Add the pork, cover and cook on low, 8 hours.
   
4. Remove the pork and transfer to a cutting board. Strain the liquid into a saucepan, bring to a boil and cook until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Season with salt. Roughly chop the pork and mix in a bowl with 1 cup of the reduced cooking liquid, and salt and vinegar to taste. Serve on buns with barbecue sauce and coleslaw.
