Ingredients
  

  • 2-3 pounds pork shoulder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 cups chicken broth see notes
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 3 teaspoons ground cumin

Instructions
 

  • Trim the excess fat off the pulled pork with a sharp knife.
  • Sprinkle on half the spices, turn the meat over, then sprinkle the other half on this side of the meat. Place it into the slow cooker.
  • Pour in the chicken broth.
  • Set heat to low to cook for 6-7 hours. If you need it cooked quicker, set temperature to high for the first 3 hours, then reduce the heat to low for 2 hours.
  • When the meat is done cooking, remove it from the slow cooker. Use two forks to shred the meat. Serve in tacos, fajitas, or even on nachos!
  • OPTIONAL: If you like the meat browned, you can brown it before adding it to a slow cooker. Heat a skillet with a tablespoon of oil over medium high heat. Brown each side of the pork shoulder for 4 minutes then place it into the slow cooker.

Notes

  1. You can use chicken or beef broth. I prefer low-sodium.
  2. You can easily cook this pulled pork recipe in the oven if you prefer. See the post for full instructions on oven baking pork.
  3. The leftover pulled pork will keep fresh in the fridge for up to 4 days. Store it in an airtight container. You can also freeze the gluten free pulled pork in freezer bags.

SPECIAL NOTE

Please know that every gluten free flour blend has a different starch to grain ratio. If you use a blend I didn't test, you may need to adjust your moisture levels in your baked goods.
