Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Season the pork shoulder with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and brown the pork on all sides for about 5 minutes. Transfer the pork to the slow cooker.

  2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Transfer the mixture to the slow cooker on top of the pork.

  3. Place the sliced apples around and on top of the pork.

  4. In a bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, apple cider vinegar, honey, dried thyme, and cinnamon. Pour the mixture over the pork and apples in the slow cooker.

  5. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until the pork is tender and easily shreddable.

  6. Once cooked, use two forks to shred the pork in the slow cooker, mixing it with the apples and sauce.

  7. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.

  8. Serve the slow-cooked pork apple hot over a bed of fluffy mashed potatoes or with a side of buttered noodles.

  9. Garnish with fresh thyme leaves or a sprinkle of cinnamon for an extra touch of flavor.
