Chef's Notes
Treat your pork shoulder with absolute respect; trimming off excess surface fat will let your dry rub adhere directly to the meat fibers, ensuring maximum flavor penetration during that long, slow bath.
Pro Tip
Do not skip the oven-crisping step! Giving that shredded or chunked pork a quick blast of high heat develops a caramelized exterior that elevates this from a standard weeknight dinner to a legendary weekend feast.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Beware the watery wasteland! If you dump the entire contents of the slow cooker straight into your BBQ sauce without draining and reducing, you will end up with a soggy, tragic soup that destroys your bread rolls.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
I asked the chef why we spend eight hours cooking this pork, and he said it's to teach the meat a lesson about patience. I suspect the meat has already checked out for the weekend.
The Culinary Science
Low and slow cooking over 8 hours denatures the tough collagen in the pork shoulder, melting it down into gelatin which coats the muscle fibers and creates that melt-in-your-mouth tenderness.

Meat Moisture Retention Protocol
Storage Science
Store in an airtight container in the coldest part of the refrigerator along with any cooking juices or sauces to maintain moisture. Consume within 3-4 days.
Reheating Science
Reheat gently in the oven at 300Β°F (150Β°C) or on the stovetop over low heat. Add a splash of broth or water and cover tightly to steam. This prevents the proteins from constricting and squeezing out their juices.
