Ingredients

• 
  Pork Shoulder or Pork Butt

  3 pounds

• 
  Olive Oil

  1 tablespoon

• 
  Paprika

  1 tablespoon

• 
  Garlic Powder

  1 tablespoon

• 
  Onion Powder

  1 tablespoon

• 
  Ground Cumin

  1 tablespoon

• 
  Dried Oregano

  1 teaspoon

• 
  Chili Powder

  1 teaspoon

• 
  Salt

  1 teaspoon

• 
  Black Pepper

  1/2 teaspoon

• 
  Chicken or Vegetable Broth

  1 cup

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) or preheat your slow cooker/crockpot to the low setting.
2. In a small bowl, combine the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, dried oregano, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to create a spice rub.
3. Rub the spice mixture all over the pork shoulder, ensuring it is evenly coated.
4. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork shoulder on all sides until browned.
5. If using an oven, place the seared pork shoulder in a roasting pan or Dutch oven. If using a slow cooker/crockpot, transfer the pork shoulder directly to the pot.
6. Pour the chicken or vegetable broth around the pork shoulder. The liquid will keep the meat moist during the cooking process.
7. If using an oven, cover the roasting pan or Dutch oven with a lid or foil. If using a slow cooker/crockpot, cover with the lid.
8. Place the pork shoulder in the preheated oven and cook for approximately 4 hours, or cook in the slow cooker/crockpot on low for 8 hours, until the pork is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.
9. Once cooked, remove the pork shoulder from the oven or slow cooker/crockpot and let it rest for a few minutes.
10. Use two forks to shred the pork, pulling it apart into bite-sized pieces.
11. Serve the pulled pork hot, either on its own or as a filling for low-carb wraps or lettuce wraps.
12. Enjoy the flavorful and tender Keto Pulled Pork!
