Ingredients
2-1/2 tablespoons dark-brown sugar
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 boneless pork butt or shoulder (about 2-1/2 pounds), trimmed
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
2 tablespoons ketchup
6 hamburger sized buns
Directions
1. In a small bowl, stir together 1 tablespoon of the sugar, the paprika, chili powder, cumin and pepper; set aside.
2. Lay pork on work surface and sprinkle on all sides with spice rub; rub well into meat. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour or overnight.
3. Unwrap pork and place in slow cooker with chicken broth. Cover and cook on HIGH for 6 hours or LOW for 8 hours. Remove pork from slow cooker and cut into large chunks; let stand for 20 minutes or until cool enough to handle.
4. While pork is cooling, pour cooking liquid into a fat separator. Pour de-fatted liquid into small saucepan. Heat over medium-high heat. Whisk in vinegar, ketchup and remaining 1-1/2 tablespoons brown sugar. Cook until sugar has dissolved, about 2 minutes; set aside.
5. Using forks or your hands, pull meat into shreds, discarding excess fat, and place in bowl. Stir in sauce and put 1/2 cup meat on each bun. Serve immediately.
I topped them with spinach, but that's what I do - I add spinach to EVERYTHING. It was so yummy!

Talk about New Zealand anytime you please, I find it very interesting! Being able to eat more organically is something i miss about NY as well...
Thanks for all of your comments I have been enjoying them! So you live in SLC?
It would be great to work out something if that happens.
Thanks again!
