INGREDIENTS

2. Create the Paste: Add the honey, red wine vinegar, and olive oil to the spice mixture. Stir until it forms a paste.
3. Prepare the Slow Cooker: Place the onion halves at the bottom of the slow cooker. Position the two pieces of pork shoulder on top of the onion.
4. Add the Paste: Pour the honey paste over all sides of the pork. It’s okay if some of it drips down to the bottom.
5. Cook: Set the slow cooker to low and let it cook for 7 to 8 hours, or until the pork is tender enough to be easily shredded with a fork.
6. Serve: Enjoy the pulled pork warm with your favorite fixings. It’s great on dinner rolls for small sliders, alongside our Pineapple Coleslaw recipe
