Expert Tips

Want to save time after shredding pork? Instead of heating broth mixture in slow cooker, place broth, tomatoes and corn in large microwavable bowl; cover with plastic wrap, and microwave on High 8 to 10 minutes or until steaming. Pour into clean slow cooker; stir in pork, and keep warm until ready to serve.
Place pork fatty side up in slow cooker so roast bastes itself as it cooks.
