Instructions

  1. 01

    Trim the fat of the pork shoulder to about 1/4-inch thick. Cut 12 slits all over the pork.

  2. 02

    Slice each clove of garlic in half, lengthwise, and press 1 piece into each slit.

    Combine the salt, brown sugar, ground mustard, and black pepper in a small bowl. Rub all over the pork shoulder. Place fat cap side down in the insert of a slow cooker. Add the onions, thyme, and apple cider around the sides. Cover and cook on high for 6 hours, or low for 8 to 10 hours until pull-apart tender.
