Step:

  1. Prepare the pork (trim fat, remove rind) and cover the meat with dry rub seasonings and place in the refrigerator for 1 hour (covered).

  2. Heat up an outdoor grill with smoking chips (best) or a large frying pan with oil, and sear the meat on all sides on medium-high heat, for about 4 minutes all 4 sides. [This will seal in the juices of the meat while slow-cooking later in the oven]

  3. Heat oven to 300

  4. Transfer the meat to a large pot / pan with lid (oven proof) and add the onion, braising liquid ingredients, and seasonings. Cover and place in the oven to slow cook for 3 hours.

  5. When done cooking, carefully remove the meat from the pan and place on a large cutting board surface. Allow the pork to cool a bit. Drain off the pan liquid.

  6. Shred the pork using two forks. Lightly chop the shredded pieces crosswise.
