Special Precautions and Tips:

• If you don't have a Dutch oven or slow cooker, you can also cook the pork in the oven. Just place it in a baking dish and cover it with foil.
• If you are using a bone-in pork shoulder roast, the cooking time will be slightly longer.
• Let the pork rest before pulling it to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and juicy pulled pork.
