Cover and cook on low heat for about 8 hours - 2Remove the meat from the slow cooker and pour the liquid into a medium saucepan
Set it over medium-high heat and bring it to a boil
Then turn it down slightly (so it’s still bubbling) and reduce the liquid by half - 3While the sauce is thickening, shred the pork with two forks (remove the bone if there is one) Pour the thickened sauce over the meat and stir to combine
