Preparation

Step 1

Use a small knife to make slits all over the pork, put a garlic slice in each as you go.
Put the pork shoulder in the bowl and press the spices mixture all over the pork.

Put in slow cooker for 7 – 8 hours. I added some chicken broth for liquid and 1/2 of a yellow onion worth of onion slices.

I cooked it for the first 2 hours on low heat, the next 4 on high heat, pulled apart the meat with 2 forks, then left it on low heat for another hour or two.
