Shredded Pork

1. Remove pork shoulder from the fridge and bring to room temperature.
2. Remove excess fat from pork.
3. Mix the dry ingredients together to make a dry rub.
4. Rub the pork shoulder with the dry rub.
5. Optional but recommended: sear the pork on all sides until well browned.
6. Place the pork into a Dutch oven and add the broth and the apple cider vinegar.
7. Cover the Dutch oven with a lid.
8. Bake in a preheated oven 160 degrees Celsius.
9. Cooking takes approximately 4 hours, but its more about the tenderness than the exact time.
