Ingredients
  

Pulled Pork
  • 4 pounds pork shoulder steaks also sold as barbecue pork shoulder steaks
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Method
 

  1. Place the pork shoulder steaks in the slow cooker, arranging them in an even layer.
  2. Sprinkle evenly with salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  3. Pour the chicken broth around the pork. Cover and cook on LOW for 8–9 hours or on HIGH for 5–6 hours, until the pork is very tender and easily pulls apart.
