Special Precautions and Tips: - Ensure the pork is fully cooked by using a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C). - If you don't have white wine, you can substitute it with more chicken broth. - You can add other vegetables to the slow cooker, such as carrots, celery, or onions. - Let the pork rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.
